I have worked for this company for 10 years, and they want everybody to sign a new non compete clause, which I heard they had an attorney draw up. I along with everybody else signed one when we were hired, so I don't understand why they want us to sign a new one, which I have not yet signed. I'm guessing the old one, which I heared was something they got online or bought a generic at the local office store. I do know that it was like two paragraphs long, and have been told by some who have been here longer that the old one has no teeth and that's why they want us to sign the new one. I'm in sales, and work pretty much on commission, and this company has no patents or anything, we basocally make wall plaques of people and company's article to preserve and display. My question is if I did sign a non-compete when I was hired, how hard is it to hold me to if I started my own company or worked for a competitor? I mean we are not selling anything that unique or they own patents on, it's quite common. I appreciate any advice you can give. Thanks
