Just my 2 cents.

I agree with DiapDealer, you should not sign something that you have every plan to break. I have been faced with contracts that I do not agree with. In every single case I have drawn a line through the offending item and initialed it. I also may write a small note stating that I do not agree to this term. It is now up to the other party to accept your terms or not.

No, employers and employees are not on the same page. That does not take away your ability to negotiate for yourself. It makes no sense to get yourself in that situation. While it is difficult to say, maybe you do not need to accept that job. If you have to have that particular job so much...then you need to abide by your working contract. You can't have it both ways.

Personal integrity is not always the easy way to go but it will always be a better bedfellow than regret.
