[Richard Wells]

I am living in Florida but not for long. The agreement was signed as 
part of the employment application process on my first day of actual 
employment.

Thanks

>> Hello,

>> my potential new employer or toward me?

>> I should probably not post this document on the list, but only to those

>> Thanks for any an all help on this.
