I recently started a new job, my county commissioner told me to carry. Not because it's a hazardous job (database development, LoL), but because he's got common sense. Who else has a city/county/state gubbermint job that encourages concealed carry (excluding LEO's)???

It's hard to conceal a Browning M2, and they make a lot of people uncomfortable.

I always carry and most of the time my T-shirt rides up over it while I'm working, I have not had anyone complain.

When I first started my career there were gun racks in the rear windows of the Co. Trucks. Hell, in high school, there were p/u with guns on Campus. Never an issue.

That is not the World of today.

Yep, same at my high school. The beginning of each school year was the beginning of dove season, so lots of students went straight to the fields right after school.

We had guns in our trucks in high school and also drank beer out in the parking lot during lunch.

Retired LEO. My part time job is 2 days a week. They didn’t tell me not to carry, and I’m not asking. I carry every time I work.

I travel through several areas that don't allow guns

The factories that I visit don't allow guns

So you know.....

I'm a conformist

Carry a firearm. But those little signs say I can’t. Nobody ever knows if I am armed.😉

We've had some shootings in the local shopping malls, when I go to the mall I always carry even though the sign at the door says no guns allowed on the premises. Concealed means concealed, it's none of anyones business if I'm carrying.

That's not fair, you had a niche occupation with an airmobile office.

I carry all the time ,even in and out of gov’t buildings and banks, concealed of course. You guys talking about the old days gave me a chuckle. I was raised in northern North Dakota all us kids took guns to school in our pick ups. Two or three times every fall there would be announcement on the PA system? Don Chase report to the principle office, course everybody figured oh Chase got in trouble again, the dumb s__t, but in truth it was just mr. Wilson wanting to know if the green heads were in such and such slough yet. I got alot of mileage out of that , with both my buddies and Mr. Wilson. Ah the great old days.
