[ale] OT: FTC bans noncompete clauses, declares vast majority unenforceable

[Chuck Payne]

WOW, a bout 14 years too late for me, but when I worked at the Travel
Channel and they sold off to Scripts, I could not get a few good jobs
because of noncomplete, I wanted to stay with Cox, but nope. What's worse!
They wanted me.

I am freaking mad.
