I'm curious how all of you get copies of things you've worked on in order to
put them in your portfolio. Didn't you sign a "non-disclosure" agreement
when you hired in? Isn't the stuff you work on considered proprietary and
confidential? Do you ask your corporate lawyer and your manager whether
you
can make a copy of something in order to add it to your porfolio, or do you
just pocket the copies without asking?
