*While* I was an employee, there were all sorts of rules I followed:
Never give out information (like upcoming sets) until that information was in
the public domain, such as when the new mini-catalogs started showing up in
sets, or the new sets started appearing on the store shelves.
Never buy something using my employee discount (dang, I miss that discount!)
for resale.
Never give out secret or inside information, such as things that go on inside
the factory. I would tell people about it, but only in very generic terms.
Never use the term "Legos", where "Lego bricks/sets/pieces" is correct. (Yes,
I know "LEGO" should be in all capital letters, that's another 'rule' I used
to follow!)
But, now that I'm a *former* employee, I think that whatever I choose to do
with *my* stuff is fine. If TLC wants me to continue to follow these 'rules',
they're going to have to give me that employee discount again... <grin>
(I'm not planning on selling my five-year award, unless someone offers me a
LOT of money for it...)
