Supporting the Rules

"you're pirating that show? don't you wanna support the creators?" "I AM the creator."
"haha the only way I can show future employers my work is to send a link to a bunch of pirated copies of it haha what a nightmare haha"
I have this problem. A couple of AAA projects I worked on, years of work, got cancelled and all that exists now is "stolen" footage. Then there's the dozen mobile apps that have been pulled from the app stores (or gotten "out of date" and no longer supported). Can't find APKs or store listings, just 3rd party site reviews are the only evidence of their existence.
You don't save anything to show later?
Probably their contracts forbid them to, so even if they save something, it is practically piracy anyway.
Most code written by software engineers work the same way. The code is owned by the company, the employee can't keep any of it after you leave or is fired.
Every job you mean, of course anything you do at work is your company's property.
