      I’ve already had this argument with people I work with. It doesn’t matter if a non-compete is enforceable or not. They’re meant to demoralize and demotivate employees so they stay with the company at low pay. Someone that has just lost their job isn’t going to risk a potentially life-destroying lawsuit.

      I know they would sue, because the process is the goal, and they have deeper pockets than I do.
