No you misunderstand me.  I am saying that anything your produce at work is a work product, be it notes, reports, letters, sticky notes, photographs, muffins, furniture, or a Ford F150.  You are saying that whatever you produce at work is your personal property, which I disagree with.  Like they say; "you can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make him drink".  Your slavery comment is just misguided.
