My boss recently told me pretty much this, but that he added we should develop the ideas "on our own time" as a work around to getting fired

It's called blackmail. Find out who your boss is fucking on the side (they all are, no exceptions) and what kind of economic shit they get into then when they fire you you fire them from a comfy life.

Of all the shitty things managers and executives do that we could point at… why would you say they’re all cheaters “no exceptions”?

Actually quite a lot of them don't cheat because they have no lives outside of the office.

They literally lived to be a third level night manager of a carpet store or something. I bet they go to dinner parties and talk about it.

Oh yes, I love doing R&D for my employers during my free time.
