I have always refused to sign these. I've been presented with five in my life and in every case they either remove them, or in one case they added an addendum to nullify it.

In most contracts that are for companies that are across states, you'll see this clause marked with a "Not applicable in California."

Trying to get an employee to sign a non-compete in CA is not just a bad idea, it can cause problems for the employer.
