And what do you do?

So Flo · 11-22-2006, 07:49 PM

I work at a university...prohibited by state law to carry on premises.

I'm not prohibited from carrying either by law or by company policy. I often carry to the office.

Armed Court Deputy. Part of the job, providing security/control in a court house setting.

I will, once I get my danged CCW. There's nothing in the employee handbook about firearms, so it's "don't ask, don't tell" in my opinion.

N weapons allowed and I always follow the rules.......

I run a bar, and deal with the occasional obnoxious violent drunk in a town where 80% of the population owns a gun, so obviously I would never have a pistol available to me either in my vehicle or laptop bag, because that sort of thing would be illegal.

I can and do because I'm one of the owners. But I carry inconspicuously in my day planner. Everyone thinks its a bible!

Im not suppose to but the only person above me is the owner and I dont think he would make an issue of it since im very discreet. I travel to some seedy areas at times and find it comforting to have with me. Another guy at work has a permit and asked if he could carry while working out of town for a week and he was told, go ahead but dont have it on the customers property.

Im a project manager/estimator

If I was discovered carrying, im 100% sure he would overlook it or just ask me not to. No diciplinary action...
