I'm curious about this, how can an employer restrict his workers' right to
do their own code. I mean, why can't you code in your free time?

Simon said something about intellectual property problems, but it's hard
to understand: does that mean that a worker's brain belongs to his
employer at full-time?

I don't want to start a flame-war on this subject, but I find this quite
curious... If not stupid :)

Take this example: Some guy works as a 'chef' in a restaurant, he cooks
and cooks at work, eight hours a day. But he isn't allowed to cook the
meal for his family and friends at home, because his boss ('le maître' :P)
doesn't allow him to do so. Does this make any sense? Uh?

Greetings,
