We don't care what the law says!

If you have a firearm in your vehicle on company property, you will be fired!

Lol. Bring it!

I saw a shirt the other day that said "I'd rather be fighting the man." What size do you wear?

 

[littletommy]

Okay, what am I missing?

It's what management is telling new hires at my work.

So then don't park on company property!

Technically your movable property is on their NON- movable property! Just saying!

Rookie: Care to specify the name and/or location of your employer?

Jus' askin'.

The law says that a company cannot do that unless they are a few of the exempt ones

Huh! No kidding..... Thanks for the info!

I always figured that it is private property and they can have a gun free zone if they wish.

You can fire without any reason at all, but if you fire someone for having a legal gun in your their car--and you are not an exempt workplace--you are breaking the law, and can be sued under state law (someone will cite it I'm sure, IANAL).

OP is right, bring it on!

You're fired because we don't like the color shirt you're wearing. Problem solved on their part.

[SaintsNSinners]

Ask me about this in 26 days

 

[beararms1776]

Just don't take it to work with you. Regardless whether you do or not though, they can tell you to work in a lightning storm with power tools, if your not cozy with it, go home and don't come back.

Exactly. Proving any kind of discrimination when it comes to getting fired is really hard unless you have proof you were fired for a specific reason. They just need one random reason to let you go.

Only if you are a white man, anyone else can make all kinds of claims easily enough
