Im no expert on CCW..... and Im sure it varies by state...... but most language I have seen explicitly states it is a violation of the law to carry anywhere that has specifically informed you its not allowed.....

for instance: a sign on the door that says no firearms allowed OR

an employee handbook which says no firearms

so I would say go right ahead and CCW regardless of your employers wishes........ youll not only be at risk of firing..... but youre also breaking the law...... doesnt exactly sound like the characterization of the typical CCW person that weve been led to believe does it?..... I mean come on..... those honest law abiding CCW people would never intentionally break the law right?
