The Federal Trade Commission narrowly voted Tuesday to ban nearly all noncompetes, employment agreements that typically prevent workers from joining competing businesses or launching ones of their own.
I’ve had places try to make me sign a non-compete agreement as a chef. I straight up told them that their agreement wasn’t even useful as toilet paper. Signed anyway, and worked for them for a few months, then moved on to a better paying job.
