I always offer to sign non competes with an amendment that says they must pay me for the time that it’s in effect, usually they remove it because it isn’t that valuable to them. I find almost universally asking for compensation for strict contract clauses sees them removed fast


That's actually somewhat close to the California way -- if a corporation wants you to not compete, they can volunteer to pay you your full salary to sit at home. But then the California twist is that the employee can choose to end that whenever they like. Voluntary golden handcuffs.
