A lot depends on your experience, education, certifications, skills, etc. The less you have to offer an employer, the harder it can be to find a job, in good times and bad.

Everyone has to make their own choices and deal with the consequences of their choices.

We've been actively hiring where I work. We get a lot of applicants but not very many have been what we're looking for.

Great! Spread that good news to those who are looking for a job or to otherwise change occupations.

I don't have one, but it's my understanding that jobs are kinda' hard to come by these days...and nights. OTOH, I've never spoken with anyone who said that bein' dead was all that satisfyin' either.

Well, good luck y'all.

In Texas, you can be fired for:

* having a gun,
* not having a gun, and;
* anything else.

There's a pretty good chance that no one will see you monkeying around in your trunk a couple of times each day and report suspicious behavior to someone who tells someone else who calls the police and reports that there is a guy with a GUN in the parking lot.

You can always get another job; however, you can only be shot a few times.

Maybe so, but I would not want to be the test case, for either side, firing or arrested.
Jobs are hard enough to get, good jobs are very hard to get

That is your choice as to carry or not on company property. And while the statement you made is technically correct, you CAN be arrested, but it would be a false arrest. Legally it is not prosecutable unless the manual is in the form of 30.06 or you have been told in person orally.

...technically correct, eh?

This false arrest could end up costing a lot of money and since you've already been fired, how are you planning on paying your attorney to get the arrest expunged (is that the right word)?

What's not to understand about the employer's rules? Employees have been given notice that no guns are allowed.
