[QUOTE="aestus, post: 1908853, member: 2989"] You don't tell anyone at work. Simple as that. Even inquiring about it will put you under a microscope. If there are no signs and nothing in the HR employee handbook barring employees from carrying, then you should be ok to carry. They may not specifically give you permission to carry, but they are also not specifically forbidding you from carrying. Notifying them or asking about it may cause them to "correct" an overlooked "issue" that was missed when company policy was written and can cause them to add verbiage banning employee carry of firearms. I would not tell anyone that you are concealed carrying. Not even the ones you become friends with, because they may inadvertently mention it in a different discussion with other people or employees. Doing so will inevitably cause someone to freak out about it and raise a grievance against you and the company and HR will be forced to close a "loophole" and specifically add verbiage to ban concealed carry for employees. It's all fine and dandy until someone complains. [/QUOTE]
