This is a very interesting discussion. Personally, I've not dealt with these issues much -- I only had one job where I signed a non-compete clause and that company is long gone... Beyond the specific legal interpretations, I was wondering if anyone had comments on how to handle a situation where you are offered a job (contract or perm) with some clauses that you don't like. How do you go about negotiating the terms of the contract? Is it even negotiable?
Ask them if they are open to some minor wording changes to make sure the agreement applies well to you particular situation and is legally valid.
Usually they will say yes....
I've never been good about negotiating anyway and with the current job market it seems like the job seeker is in the weak position.
