i can’t find the local news article because the link is dead, but here is a change.org petition about a Subway employee having a noncompete enforced: https://www.change.org/p/subway-restaurants-absurd-non-compe...

The NYT has more examples including a summer camp counselor: https://archive.ph/1BvoM

If the noncompete truly has no value, and it is also not worth paying out for, then it should just not be in the employment contract to start.

Oh, mea culpa then. I guess I’ve made a popular incorrect assumption given that people keep signing these things.
