Well at my company it was the complete opposite. About half of my
Lego collection is out there now. I didn't want to bring it there,
but after 2 weeks of the company president insisting I bring it
out, I finally caved.


And what exactly are "work hours" anyway? The software engineers in
my company work well beyond traditional work hours, so its hard to
say they can't play with Legos between 9 and 5 if they are also
working to midnight often :)
