Gina told me I could take whatever was in my head, but not documents if I went to work for Crossroads. So I made tons of original documents of things I thought she considered confidential, but I had no reason to think basic policies were confidential because they are policies that are not regarded as confidential anywhere in the policy manual. Nor are specific forms called that. It's unclear what is confidential information, processes, or documents. So in order to be above reproach, I worked hard to create things based on what was in my head, even though now I'm wondering why I went through all that trouble since no efforts were made by oconnell to clarify what's a trade secret, what's confidential, and what's not. Of course I was confused during this process and the only thing I felt I was doing was withholding information from Gina that I was consulting because I merely thought she would have a bad taste in her mouth about it--not that it was illegal or protected or proprietary information to be protected as a trade secret. We've never had a culture of secrecy, and confidential information has only and always been discussed in my presence at oconnell as confidential health information abotu clients. Never have we been instructed to protect, hide, distinguish certain key processes or docuements are confidential or trade secrets--I see very little value in any document in and of itself, in any penny board, paragraph describing family meetings, anything that is obviously publically available and accessible by anyone including visitors, case teams, DCF, and all clients and employees regardless of manager status, privileged access via password protected stuff, etc.
