That's pretty common. A guy in our office prefers:

  my $doc = "\n";
  $doc .= "\tThe various lines of text his program will print\n";
  $doc .= "\tif you call it with no arguments, which he types\n";
  $doc .= "\tin quotes and indiviually appends with the dot op\n";
  $doc .= "\n";

to what I personally consider more readable, which would be:

my $doc =<<END;

   The various lines of text his program will print
   if you call it with no arguments, which he types
   in quotes and indiviually appends with the dot op

END

He hates that. 
Style is definitely personal.
Just try to think of the other guy when coding. :)
