> you aren't working for yourself, you're working for them

So the company owns the poop I excrete into the toilet at 2:00 AM on a Saturday night? The company owns the Crayon drawings I make with my child in the evenings? The company owns the poetry I came up with in a fever dream after some weird drugs? You say "you're working for them" like it implies some indentured servitude, where I'm living in the company town and they get to say how I live my life. I'm doing some scoped job for them in pre-defined hours for a pre-defined purpose, and for everything else in my life, they can get fucked. Honestly, your inhumane attitude is why people hate lawyers.
