    He says his job was “pretty much shoveling dirt.” When he found better work, he was sued for violating a noncompete. http://nyti.ms/2pyLyVd pic.twitter.com/QEPTCii6Xa

        The old times were better. No weird legal bonds like this. This world has become greedy and selfish. Pray for the return of good ol' times.

        This is a travesty, not too far removed from slavery. End this.

        How come the US doesn't have laws against that? In many countries, this noncompete will be considered abusive and will be dismissed.

        And this was once why we had strong unions... so that workers would not simply be slaves...

        That's crazy that a physical labor position would make you sign a noncompete. I've never even heard of something like that 🤔🤔

        They ended slavery for blacks but have introduced slavery for all the poor. It's still discrimination.

        Yes, this "noncompete" bull must stop. Workers are increasingly treated like chattle. Dear Labor Unions: TIME TO RISE!
