Default Carry on the job?

How many of us carry at work or is it prohibited by your company to carry awhile on company time ?

I carry my Hi Point .45 JHP as the primary duty weapon, the 380 CF as back-up, and the Phoenix HP22 as my last chance, conceal carry.

My owner/ boss knows I have a ccw and own firearms. He has never said I couldn't carry at work. I carry everyday.

Its against company policy to let us carry at work, they even threw no firearms in your vehicle when in the parking lot into the handbook.

I am a teacher so I can't even bring it to work and lock it in the glove box. I can't have it on school property. Therefore if I have to run errands, I have to run home to get my gun after I leave work.

Exactly the same here. Except I'm in the sales end of the building, with a desk instead of a tool box.

Same Here, even though the company handbook prohibits it, he's actually bumped mine but did not say a word. Just joined this firm last October but its never mattered where I work or what their policies are. Short of metal detectors, armed guards, and a secure perimeter, anyones rule is really more of a suggestion...right.
