Nice pile !
My issues with work carry is just because of the work I do. Crawling around in tight places, digging holes, installing carpet. None of those things works well with AIWB carry. I am on my own now so I don't have to worry about the boss spotting my EDC.Same here 365, have issues at work also but the Bodyguard fits nice in the rear pocket and for several years has never been noticed . I carry Liberty civil defense in both, you?
the old faithful Colt 1911.
Its not broke so don't fix it.
Positives. Ok, let's see.Oh my ... a real downer, you are ! I also stated (in a subsequent post), that the magnum revolver was employed in order to get my hands on a rifle. .... which in 90% of my environment (I don't get out much !) ..... is almost instantaneously possible.
Please ... let's look for the positives in life. You'll be a happier person, R45.
i have a shoulder holster, a cross-chest holster, and a belt holster (with suspenders) to facilitate carry.if you are not joking and you actually carry that thing.
I hear you lol. Been legally deaf since 2002. They say what little I do have i should protect. It takes around 116 decibels to let me hear sounds. People talking is me trying to interpret what they just said by sound and their lips moving. I'm 90% wrong it seems unless they are cussing me out lol. You and I need to meet somewhere public so we can yell at each other make people think we're angry. It could be interesting.I've been legally deaf for 10 years or so...... there's nothing left to lose !
I've actually taken (3) semesters of ASL (American sign language) at the Indiana School for the Deaf. The first thing that they teach is lip-reading.I hear you lol. Been legally deaf since 2002.

I've told people I can't hear or understand i need to see their lips moving. Most will pull the mask down and talk I've ran into several that don't care so I have them write down what they are saying.I've actually taken (3) semesters of ASL (American sign language) at the Indiana School for the Deaf.

I have very expensive hearing aids, but unless I can see your lips, they do no good. This makes communication very difficult during this time of people wearing masks !
I only make a point of it if it's important. During a recent doctor visit, he pulled his mask down after I brought it to his attention.I've told people I can't hear or understand i need to see their lips moving.

My doctor wears a plastic face shield when I see her she already knows the drill lol. Cincinnati VA can be a pain with certain ones who are scared to death about old veterans giving them Wuhan virus. They will however pull the mask down to communicate. Or we would be in a lot of trouble. Most of the staff know me now so they will just walk up tap me on the shoulder if I'm not paying attention.I only make a point of it if it's important.

Otherwise, I often just give a friendly wave & nod, and move on.
My Spidey senses were triggered this morning and I upsized. Glad I did based on DC festivities. Probably dress different and carry full size for the rest of the week.Usually I carry a compact but will occasionally carry the Sig 226. Carried 226 today with New Years Eve, especially following the Nashville incident. Carried the 226 during the beginning of the lockdowns and throughout the BLM protest.
Not really practical to conceal a full size in my office environment regularly but I adjust when potential for Orange/Red zones as I anticipate.
