Has anybody around here been sued after leaving a company due to a non-compete clause?
I worked for a company based in New Mexico while I lived in California. When we both got sick of each other, at the exit interview the HR personnel on the phone from New Mexico told me I could not work in IT for the next 2 years as I signed a non-compete agreement. I just started laughing at them and told them I lived in California and good luck with enforcing that contract. End of conversation and I was out in the parking lot 5 minutes later, still laughing.
