    Default Banned office carry

    I live in eastern TN, my employer in the past has considered it an asset for his employees to carry. Now with a new consultant he has decided to ban all guns on property even if you have a valid carry permit except for a few whom he selects to carry a firearm. I've done my best to make the case that more guns in the hands of law abiding citizens is an extremely safe environment and an asset to the business. However to no avail he still considers those with carry permits to be a liability. I understand it's his property and his right to decide whether or not firearms should be allowed on his property because the insurance provider considers gun owners a liability. My main concern is that if we do not elect a president who will dismantle and abolish Obamacare the government will use Obamacare to attempt to ban firearm ownership because the government deems gun ownership a health risk/liability.

    Carry concealed in a manner where you won't get outed. If you ever do have t use it your last concern will be getting fired.

    What type of work do you do where you feel the need to carry concealed in the office? If you work out of the office or travel then I understand where you're coming from. Maybe the boss is planning on downsizing in the near future and he doesn't want 20 disgruntled employees in his office with guns. The "chosen few" that are still allowed to carry have probably been chosen as bodyguards..lol

    Good luck..sorry to make light of your situation. Just trying to lighten the mood. :)

    When would you think someone should carry concealed in an office? How about at a beer distributor?

    Rich_s My feelings exactly! Actually my employer has received death threats. Employees will most likely be the first potential victims, being his office is not in the foyer!!:)

    If you value your job, leave your sidearm locked up (unloaded) inside your vehicle while you are at work.

    Please surrender your username, it is apparently unwarranted. Then view my first digital signature at bottom of this or any of my posts and note that being an "outlaw" at times extremely warranted...
