In Washington state non-competes are ubiquitous, and hair-stylists and estheticians have been sued over them.
That person that waxes people's legs? Works 36 hours a week so the company doesn't have to call them "full-time" and signs a non-compete that says they can't leave and work for someone else for a year within a 10 mile radius of any location of the prior company, which usually means they can't work anywhere within 50 miles of where they live.
It's criminal how these things are used and they should be banned outright.
