Like if the main engineer creates lots of really useful hooks etc. is it stealing if you use them outside of work?

I’m talking about using the idea and not necessarily the entire code.

    …but be smart about it. You never know when some former co-worker with a grudge against you might tattle on you to your unusually litigious former boss. Don’t go bragging about how you copy constantly from your old employer’s repo or have a copy of your old employer’s entire private corporate wiki.

    In other words, fuck your boss, but don’t fuck yourself over in the process.

      Good point. Also, your work absolutely does not need your socials, nor do your coworkers. That whole “we’re a family” thing is bullshit. Get real friends.
