Re: "Prior Inventions" on employment contract

["Booth Martin" <Booth@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You got an e-mail on this?  You are on the premises, working, and they sent
an e-mail?  My gawd man, they really are playing "get even" for the rapes of
y2k aren't they.

This sounds to me like some new eager beaver in Human Resources is in a
win-win position.  If s/he hires you under those terms then s/he's a hero
for standing tough.  If you choose to move on then s/he's still a hero
because "obviously you have another agenda and s/he saved the company from
your greedy and rapacious ways."

My guess is that you'll have to sign a contract and under no conditions use
any of your utilities.  Tough luck, man.  Hate to see people screwed over
that way.

It sounds like my employer is going to be hardnosed about this. I got
an email back stating that the contract must be signed in its current
form. I guess I need to ask the question, "what will they do if I
refuse?"
