The buyout clause only applies to the staffing agency's client (where Ed is
currently working... as far as I can tell, it's not his former employer).
If the staffing agency's client would like to hire Ed as a full-time
employee then the client would have to comply with the buyout clause.
Mike is correct. I probably was not as clear as I should have been in the
original post.
Employer A is my previous, long-term employer.
Employer B is the present employer. They have me working with Company C.
With B I have an agreement which states I will give them 2 weeks notice.
There is a clause about soliciting, and I'd need to wait 180 days before
contacting C.
Thanks for helping clear this up.
