I took mine to my wife's work, and they told her, if I come back with it, she would be fired.
Interesting. They said they'd fire HER for something someone else did... I think I would seek the advice of counsel. It may be permissible, but I don't know if that would run afoul of last legislative session's "parking lot 2.0" act (SEA 434, IIRC)
This might become a financial opportunity for her if they follow through on their threat. At a minimum, I would investigate the possibility, but keep it quiet if you do so.
Blessings,
Bill
