Are you worried about losing your health insurance if you lose your job? If you&#8217;ve already lost group coverage because of a layoff, have you been able to find an affordable replacement? Are you more likely to get genetic testing if you know the results wouldn&#8217;t hurt your insurability? Are you worried an employer wouldn&#8217;t hire you based on genetic test results? </p>

Is it fair to take clients with you when you change jobs? Is it fair for employers to ask you not to? Have you ever been asked to sign a non-compete agreement, or any other employment contract that made you think twice? How did it work out? </p>
