Just got laid off from my job of over eight years due to the financial landscape we are in. I also signed a no compete last year, only field I know. That’s valid for two years. Good times, wish me luck… 🤡🌎

They can’t enforce that shit. Good luck bro. Been there, fortunately it was half a life time ago.

The owner has won suits in the past for going to a competitor

After he laid them off?

Good point! I will look into it this weekend. Many thanks.

What did you figure out?

They can’t do much but I have to disclose it and no place will hire me yet. Fun

Good luck man. It’ll all work out in your favor.

Thanks man!

Ask him to release you. Then make him sue you if he doesn’t.

What industry?

Courier business

Gotcha. That’s way away from any help I could offer. It’ll work out in the end.

Thanks for the zap, not why I posted this but amazing kindness shown.

“Zaps” now

Sorry to hear it 😔

This is what the psychopaths mean when they talk about "reducing demand to bring down inflation". Absolutely mental

Was there no monetary consideration in the non-compete? This is the US, right?

At least did you ask there company to waive it?

Also, I wouldn't worry about post-employment restrictions, even if the company doesn't agree to waive the non-compete, they're difficult to enforce

Thanks Chris! No, no monetary compensation. Just a “see ya”.
