Haha great. I will start making a long list including everything down to the comic book I drew in crayon when I was in elementary school :) and also a statement reserving your current and future rights How do you think that should be worded? Maybe something like "I reserve the right of ownership to any future projects, inventions, writings, etc that I develop after beginning employment with Company X in such cases that the aforementioned projects do not use Company X resources, do not compete with Company X, do not negatively affect my performance on Company X projects, and are strictly and independently developed during my personal free time"? The offer is good, I just bought a car so now I have loans, and I am starting in two weeks so it would be foolish to bail. I realize they have to do this and I have no problem cooperating, but I just want to make sure I am covered all the way to the kitchen sink :). Not working on some side projects for a year or two would be extremely difficult for me. Hopefully, it is just a formality and I can get it worked out. I sent emails to my team lead, the HR department, and their help desk for new hires. Hopefully, I will get some informative emails tomorrow morning.
