At every place I kept it concealed. I never got found out because I was very careful. Concealed means concealed. If you don't trust yourself to keep it concealed than keep it in your car. How would they find out if it was in your car?

That plan also works in bars and colleges.

Yeah, only risk side of the equation is much higher. Rather than just losing your job or getting kicked out of school, the risk because actual charges because you may be actually breaking the law.

Possession of personal weapons by any partner or staff at any time on Firm or client premises, or on Firm business anywhere, is prohibited. Anyone who reports to work with a weapon, or is in possession of a weapon at work or on Firm business, will be subject to appropriate disciplinary action.

It's the "on client premises" and "on firm business anywhere" parts that get me... so if I'm working all day at a client site or out to lunch with a client and don't go to my office at all, I still can't carry?

Yep, sounds like you also would be prohibited from carrying during any corporate travel. I thought I had it bad. I work for a private university and so, not only does work policy prohibit me from carrying at work - the law also backs it up making such actions actually illegal. But they have no written policy that extends the prohibition beyond the campus. So I can at least carry while traveling on business.
