A manager of a bar can carry a firearm. No CHL is required in that case. PC §46.15(a)(7).
The question is, who is a manager? The owner of the bar can appoint more than one person as a manager, but I would think they need to be people who are reasonably considered to be in control of the premises. A janitor, for example, probably could not be designated a manager.

Re: I want to buy a gun
I should add that it would be very reasonable to request an escort to your car at (I'm guessing) 2 or 4 a.m.
I have walked women coworkers to their cars many times without assuming that we were in a war zone.

Re: I want to buy a gun
Welcome to the forum, Megs.
I see that this is your first post, and you don't already own a firearm.
BobCat's advice is excellent. You need to meet up with some good people who can guide you.
By mentioning Carter's Country, you revealed that you live in the Houston area. Many members of this forum are in the Houston area and will be willing to help you, and there are many CHL instructors.
Also, if you work in a bar that you do not own, you must have the consent of the bar owner to carry there. The laws about carrying weapons in bars are complicated.
