So I was recently hired for a scribe company and finished signing the paperwork (non-compete clause and all) for an outpatient medical center. I had interviewed with a different scribe company months before for an ED position at a major hospital but was told that I would be on the waitlist for at least a few months with a number of people ahead of me.
I needed a job not just for financial reasons but to gain some more experience so I decided to go with the outpatient scribe position especially since they had a position open for me now. However I recently found out that I got the position for the other scribe company as an ED scribe.
I signed the non-compete but I haven't even started training or anything at all as of yet. I'm scheduled to go in next week to meet with the chief scribe to discuss scheduling, etc. Since I haven't technically even started training yet would I be able to leave this position to go to the other company without putting myself in a legal issue?
I've read that these non-competes usually are not enforced but I wanted advice for my specific situation, especially since I haven't even trained yet let alone anything else.
