Of course not. They're all skunkworks projects. Just like refactoring has to be. I've developed internal tools that help me a lot and help others too. None of the managers of any of my jobs has ever asked "When did you find time to build that?" I'm sure it's partly because management doesn't have a good idea of how long things take to build. The internal tool could have taken you a week but management probably thinks it took a couple hours.
