I have a general question, in the financial arena where I work, I was never asked to sign any sort of not-to-compete covenants or anything similar to that. I have had clients who have left our firm and then contacted me personally to take them over as my personal clients. What do I need to do...

Thanks Sarah and Jess, I have had people talk at the gym of the proportion that the calf and bicep should be similar in size. I was just very curious, because mine are not in proportion at all. Sarah, you have an interesting point in the fact that certain jeans will not fit right, I have...
