An executive from HP can go to Xerox or vice a versa but a DTS Sales rep thinks he can't get another job. Did you hit the goals or just try real hard? Do you think they where unreasonable?

You are obviously new, How new are you to the industry? What are the other sales people doing? Are you collecting unemployment or did they challenge it based on non performance. If they have only 2 service techs I doubt the "CEO" can afford to chase you around let alone an attorney. (Another non professional free opinion) Take it for

When I was the Solutions Manager at RBS-Boston I demo'd and installed the RPCS driver. I loved the feature set it was great to demo, but we were told by corporate tech support to only install them directly. They told us this after we had installed the RPCS driver on a customer's server and all of the cool icons kept disappearing from the RPCS Driver. You mentioned that Ricoh

You old employer will not be able to completely stop you from making a living in your field. In fact the more restrictive the non compete is the less likely a Judge will be inclined to honor it. Can you post the non compete agreement (just sanitize the names on it). I have heard of a Judge who allowed the ex employer to pick a very limited area (NOT New England, but maybe Boston proper) this leaves many other territories available for a Sales Rep to work. Or another Judge told the ex employer
