It can be, though it's supposedly not supposed to happen as much in that realm (in practice, well…). More, I've seen it happen to people a lot in academia (particularly graduate school) and in “harder” single-source join-the-team employment (which intersects the “unless someone's already paying for it” a lot of times, but not always—salaried people get a lot of weird ambiguity re how much time they're “supposed” to be “at work”). It seems to be a common phenomenon. (But then, I can be kind of Spathi-like and overly fearful, so.)
