Most no compete clauses are null if the employee is released by the company. They are usually only in effect if the employee is the one to initiate separation. Non disclosure agreements are generally permanent and binding regardless of who initiates separation.HAMMER: Originally employed as a weapon of war, the hammer nowadays is used as a kind of divining rod to locate the most expensive parts adjacent the object we are trying to hit.

popsjumper 2 #73 January 18, 2011 The kid is dancing in a dream. Don't bother him while the music is playing. To the dancing dream kid: You're waaaaay off base. You've been tagged out several times. Leave the playing field while you still have your pants on. If wasn't for the people "rich" enough to pay a wage, you wouldn't be getting one. Your only option would be to start a one-man business selling to all the others who aren't getting a wage and operating a one-man business. What a country THAT would be. Simple as that. If I inherited my money I would be pointing MY finger at you saying: Nyah, Nyah, Nyah, Nyah, Nyah, Nah....all the way to the bank. My reality and yours are quite different.

HandsomeSalad 0 #75 January 18, 2011 He's right and looking at the US school system should reveal it. They are basically set up to see a lot of people fail. If you make it to the undergraduate level of education the game then isn't so muchabout keeping you stupid as it is ensuring you are innovative and productive in your work life but not at home.
