Return to “Employer has weapons policy”
I love your job tooKythas wrote:My company has a policy that states "No unauthorized guns are permitted in the office". I point blank asked the HR person if that includes CHL. She told me that if I have a CHL then I'm authorized by the state and therefore can carry at work. I love my job.
... or at least your employer.Can they terminate you? Yes. Are they likely too? Not based on your description of the situation. It sounds like the boilerplate policies that a lot of companies have. What is likely to make them search your vehicle in a public parking lot? How do they even know you drove to work? Have they announced any random vehicle searches recently. Might be a good time to "lose" your keys and have a friend/spouse drop by and drive your car away. "Sorry... my "life partner"BigJohn wrote:My employer has a weapons policy that says an employee cannot have a weapon on the premises or in their car. It goes further to say that they, the employer, have the right to search your vehicle and if you do not submit to a search it is grounds for termination. However, my employer leases office space in Dallas that is shared with dozens of tenants. Can they really terminate me for keeping my gun in my car if they don't own the building or parking lot? This lot is open to the public and is not a secured lot with a guard shack and fence. Please give me your feedback.
dropped me off this morning boss, didn't you notice?" "Do you need to search, her/his/its car today?
