McDonald’s is also forcing noncompetes on new hires. Nobody should work for them

Edit: my source (potus) was mistaken apparently. A better source is below and involves non poaching and different restaurants (not McDonald’s as far as I can tell)

> About 80 percent of fast-food workers are constricted by no-poaching clauses, according to Healey's office. The other fast-food chains targeted by the states' investigation are Arby's, Five Guys, Little Caesars and Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen.

That was a bogus claim made by Biden. Looks like hourly employees don't sign non-competes.
