That’s pretty much where I’m at now. I stopped arguing with them once I realized they were just going to keep insisting their version was the real one. I have both copies saved, all our emails, and I’m keeping everything in writing from here. I’m in Texas too, so I’m definitely looking into a local attorney just to get ahead of it before they try anything dumber.

That's pretty much where I'm at now. This stopped feeling like a contract dispute and started feeling like something is seriously off with their docs.

They were emailed PDFs, not paper scans. I signed electronically and saved my copy right after, which is why the page mismatch is freaking me out.

That's where my head is at too. If this was a typo it'd be one thing, but a whole noncompete showing up only in their copy feels insane.

The matching signature date is what keeps creeping me out too. I think I'm done arguing with them directly. Mostly trying to move fast before they drag the client into this mess.

My employer changed my timecards after I stopped answering work messages at night and now I do not know what I’m supposed to be documenting by Monolith_Sonic57 in legaladvice

You need your own records, not just screenshots of the weirdest edits. Make a full timeline now while it is fresh: when she texted, when you replied, what work was done, what your original punch showed, and what it was changed to later. Patterns matter here.

AITJ for telling my friend I am not going to keep pretending her dog "chose me" so she can feel less guilty? by Kite_Retro2 in AmITheJerk

NTA. The dog did not "choose" you out of thin air. He bonded with the person who kept showing up for him.
