What field of work do you all do and do they allow concealed carry on site and if so do you carry?

I'm an oil analysist and it's a 2 man company out in North Texas at a house of all places and so therefore I do not carry on site. Basically we work out of the bosses home.

I work for a printing company, and the employee manual specifically prohibits carrying of any kind of weapon, including licensed handgun carry, but it says nothing about the parking lot, which is commonly shared with other tenants of the building in which we are located. I secure my weapon in the car before going inside, and put it back on before driving away. :grumble

The business entry is not posted with a 30.06, so please feel free to walk in armed and visit with me sometime. :mrgreen:

I pastor a small Country Baptist Church. I do carry 24-7. I encourage all others to carry 24-7 when legal.

I do systems and networking work for a small business. Some of my work takes me onto school property, where I don't carry. Other aspects of my work involves doing physical work on job sites. If I am doing work where I am going to be in ceilings and on ladders, I don't carry simply because it would be too easy for my sidearm to become exposed. I am looking for a pocket gun as soon as my budget allows, which will remedy this issue. I have not been given any sort of written or verbal notice, and there is no policy against carrying. Any time other than those mentioned above, I carry.

Paint /assembly for a company that applies a fireproof coating to valve actuators for the oil industry. Boss has non compliant signs up that were up when he bought company ,so yes i carry into work and lock in my desk , production mngr and owner both have chl and we have gone to gun shows together,i suspect that the non compliant signs are left up for insurance purposes as when we have to work after it gets dark one or the other will ask if i'm packing as we are in a very bad neighborhood. :woohoo
I used to think my dad was wrong about everything but as I get older I realize that he was dead on

If in an office setting you have not received official notice to not:
have wildlife as a screen saver assume it is OK.
use a glass drinking cup at your desk assume it is OK
carry green pins in your pocket assume it is OK.
carry a concealed handgun in a quality holster assume it is OK.

Your OK. :thumbs2:

I work in a "gun free school zone". Criminals aren't allowed to bring guns onto our campus. We have signs up. The signs will stop them. Really.
Hypothetically, if the signs weren't to cause within them a great spiritual awakening, and they still managed to enter our force-shield protected building, it would be the fault of all "you people" that cling to that out-dated notion that the Second Amendment is an individual right. ;-)

The NRA & TSRA are a bargain; they're much cheaper than the cold, dead hands experience.
