[Beauty Shop Woes] When Giuseppe Hired Ines to Work in His

[Beauty Shop Woes] When Giuseppe hired Ines to work in his beauty shop as a hair stylist, she entered into an agreement with Giuseppe whereby if she left his employment she would not work for another beauty shop within 50 miles for 2 years. Giuseppe trained Ines in a number of new techniques. After nine months, Ines was offered a great job down the street at a new beauty shop. She quit Giuseppe's shop and a number of customers followed her down the street to her new job. Giuseppe claimed that she had signed a contract and had no right to go to work at the new shop. Ines disagreed and told Giuseppe that no judge in the country would enforce such an agreement. Ines then told Giuseppe that she was more worried about a customer who was threatening to sue her because her hair turned green after Ines worked on it. Ines said that she knew that the customer's hair was damaged; but that she told the customer that odd results could result from a dye attempt and had the customer sign a contract that released Ines from all liability and that she would not sue. The customer, however, sued anyway.
