In the early days of the dotcom era someone thought "internet technology" was a niche and tried to make me sign an NC, after I moved to take the job.

I said "I'm not signing this", they did the old it's not a big deal thing and I said if it's not a big deal you can change it.

In theory he was supposed to give me a reworded NC, but he promptly forgot it. Un/fortunately for him they didn't have anything that I would compete with.
