Chances are, your contract probably stipulates that any work or ideas you come up with whilst being an employee are their property.
If that's the case, ask your friend or a family member to approach them for you.
- singer 16y agoAt most companies, that doesn't count for the things you do outside of work.
- ScottWhigham 16y agoTrue but, as you said, that's "most companies" and not "all companies"
- singer 16y agoWhat's your point?
- ScottWhigham 16y agoThe point would be to do your due diligence and find out what your contract has and to not leave it to chance. I guess I could have clarified that a bit but I expected that people would have been able to infer what I meant. I have no need or desire to over-answer in every situation.
