I currently have a non-compete in my position as branch manager for the engineering firm I work for. I think the rule makes mine unenforcable now, but I wasn't worried. I was allowed to modify the wording on it when given it and it was narrowed down to specifically, I can't bring over or work with the same clients I currently do work with if I were to go to another firm. I also got 2 week bonus pay for signing.
2/2
I think this is a good thing to eliminate non-competes. When I was in highschool, I worked at Laser Quest and they made me sign a non-compete so I couldn't work at any other laser tag/arcade place for 3 years after leaving LQ. I signed it but considered it a joke because I knew I was under 18 and they couldn't enforce it on me anyway. But even back in the 90's they were doing these to that stupid of an extent.
Today is National Pigs-In-A-Blanket and National Sauvignon Blanc Day
A fine pairing, those two.

You might think I am silly, but I got a little weepy yesterday when I saw people planting trees in honor of #earthday
It felt so wholesome and hopeful
