Default Re: \"No Compete Agreement\" - Am I being unreasonable?

[ QUOTE ]
In some states, no compete agreements don't hold up in court, as they effectively prevent somebody from making a living.

Alabame is a "right to work state," and non-competes don't generally hold up. However, if you sign one, and a potential employer finds out, they might be reluctant to hire you because your current employer can still sue and the new employer would have to deal with it. I've worked in radio for nearly 7 years, and these are industry standard. What field are you in?
