All of the companies I've worked for _did_ have such an explicit policy, but both of our examples are anecdotal.

The company I work at doesn't have that policy and neither has any other I've worked at.

But @lotusleaf1987, that's just anecdotal :)

That's totally my point, it's all anecdotal until someone does actual research and a poll.

The :) was meant to indicate a bit of sarcasm ;)

Sorry sometimes sarcasm on the internet is hard to grasp. I may also be a bit socially under-developed. ;)
