Customer lists aren't always provided by the company, dumbass.
Salespeople have to go out and earn customers, dumbass.
Sometimes salespeople even bring former customers to a new company, dumbass.

I had a roommate out of college that worked for probably 3 different companies in the 1 year i lived with him. He signed 3 non competes with all of them. He did sales for 3PL’s. Each time he went to a new company, he just went and got his old customers. They didn’t do shite

To be enforceable in most places a non-compete agreement has to be limited in scope, only good for a limited time period, and restricted as to the geographic area where it will apply. Except in very rare specialized cases most courts have decided that a previous employer should not be able to restrict a former employee from making a living in a specific field without limitations, allowing only for reasonable restrictions to protect the former employers business. Many are never enforced due to the value of any lost revenue probably being less than the legal cost to enforce the agreement.

That's just completely wrong. Esp in a right to work state, they can ROF them any time they choose.

You don't to go through this kind of strike. Trust me.

I see this is still rolling along.

I had to file a grievance because they tried to fire me because I didn't bend my knees while fueling a package car. I asked them to show me the safety video of how to fuel a package car and they said they couldn't find it.
Right to work state.

Right. And we don't need unions to protect us from incompetent management.

A proposal that would allow United Parcel Service Inc. to use "hybrid drivers" — employees who work as drivers and in other roles — is causing tension as labor negotiations between the company and the International Brotherhood of Teamsters continue this week.
quote:
UPS wants a two-tier system in which the hybrid drivers would make $6 per hour less than the traditional driver starting rate, according to a post from Teamsters United. Another Teamsters group, Teamsters for a Democratic Union, posted recently that this proposal would allow UPS to provide Sunday delivery at lower pay rate than it would using its traditional driver force.
Local UPS drivers picketed the proposal during an event in Louisville yesterday, WDRB-TV reported. Demonstrators there pointed out that hybrid drivers would never make as much as traditional drivers, who make about $19 per hour and top out at about $36.

And what is your reasoning that UPS shouldnt be allowed to do this other than personal reasons?
Posted on 6/20/18 at 3:42 pm to Mingo Was His NameO
Isn't any reason personal/opinion?

Union workers are lazy whinny employees whose membership as a percentage of the USA workforce has dropped in half since 1983. Unions are a cancer that suck the life out of American companies and have driven many American corporations into bankruptcy over the years.
I hope UPS girly men go on strike. Non-union FED EX could use the extra business.
Meanwhile, unions will hopefully keep shrinking into oblivion.

In TX their also has to be a reasonable $ buy out as well, for the non compete to be enforceable.
Even then, medical professionals (my experience with non competes) can still say that limiting their ability to work/practice is a detriment to the public and the courts don't end up enforcing the non compete.

Dont even care. We ship Fedex. We have since your last strike when you cost my business a ton of money.
My purchase orders even say we prefer to have things shipped fedex over UPS. I wont refuse a package but I certainly dont ask for UPS.
Its been years and I am still pissed.

So, Fedex is going to deliver 5x more packages than It already does?
