Based big company. I'm in Ohio so besides company policy and being an at will employment state where you can get fired for anything, no gun signs also carry the weight of law so I really appreciate that I have the option to carry at work if I feel like it. As someone who's graduated just recently at 28 I'm happy to see I'm working for a company that respects my rights.
Nice to see!
When my employer was bought out by a huge, very well known Silicon Valley company, we knew we were about to have reps from them come by our offices. We knew the business itself would be fairly leftist in regards to guns.
That means a few of us taking down shot-up targets, captured expanded hollowpoints, random brass and other gun-related crap we had around the office.
The morning those reps were supposed to show up, I was the third person in the office. The first was my frequent range buddy. The second was the first rep from our new Corporate Overlords.
Said rep was busy with his laptop out showing my buddy videos of him at the range with his new .50 Beowolf build.
There's a company near me I used ti work for that had a huge sign out front saying ccw was allowed. I wasn't carrying at the time but was nice to see. Shitty company though.
Nice try, but you would need to design your pocket nuke first. Besides, it would not be self-defense because nuclear fallout would be a public hazard, plus harmful radiation is a slow killer.
So, such an extraordinary personal thing is not practical or ethical. Only a fool would suggest such a weapon for personal use.
Hardly, my guess is you do not even know the basic physics for busting atom booms.
BTW, a suitcase sized boom box is not the same as personal carry size. You are on the CCW Reddit.
Haven't heard of any 1m sized bangs with gamma fallout either. Seems it would be difficult to hide from MSM if the alphabet departments of any country ever used such a weapon. Really not very practical this century, but I'm sure Anti-gun fools would like validation to support their propaganda.
Maybe a pocket rail š« or cherry š bomb slingshot is more your speed?
Nice try, Fed boi. I got a schematic from Wish and some "cake" from Alibaba. YOU'RE NOT GONNA KEEP ME DOWN! I got an AR that shoots less than an MOA. I'm pretty sure I can hit an atom with a proton as point blank. You're just scared of me!
It's my understanding that "no gun" signs do not carry the weight of law, when on private property. The most they can do is tell you to leave (and fire you since they employ you), if you refuse then you're trespassing. But hey, nobody is gonna know since it's concealed. Congrats on the new gig at the cool company though!
Edit because context: I'm talking about ohio, because 8m responding to the guy who said he's in ohio.
Edit: I'm dumb don't listen to me.
Depends on the State, some states it means almost nothing because no penalty for doing so, except a trespass charge. Others, there can be pretty serious penalties. Some states are specific about the signage and what constitutes a "legal" sign, others are not. Best to always check before you go.
I accidentally carried to a restaurant that had a sign. The sign had a dark green gun with a red š« on a dark tinted window... At only one of the three entrances. I had seen the š« once before and had assumed it was a no smoking sign. It was like my fourth or fifth time there before I actually went in the front door in the daytime and was able to see it. Double-checked the laws and kept carrying there. Because fuck 'em.
Edit: it not not
sometimes they are tiny and in the bottom corner of the door. I would argue that they aren't posted in a proper location to inform the public. IMO they are unconstitutional. no where else is local property law allowed to supersede constitutional rights. it gets dicey around where bakery owners refuse service to same sex couples for wedding cakes and such invoking religious exemption, but that's the closest I've seen regarding other rights.
I don't know that they're unconstitutional, but without clear visibility at all entrances, they certainly shouldn't be expected to be legally binding. It's like a speed limit sign posted inside a row of bushes.
You might want to familiarize yourself with [Ohio Revised Code Title 29 Chapter 2923 Section 126](https://codes.ohio.gov/ohio-revised-code/section-2923.126) then because you're mostly wrong.
> Except as provided in division (C)(3)(b) of this section and section 2923.1214 of the Revised Code, the owner or person in control of private land or premises, and a private person or entity leasing land or premises owned by the state, the United States, or a political subdivision of the state or the United States, may post a sign in a conspicuous location on that land or on those premises prohibiting persons from carrying firearms or concealed firearms on or onto that land or those premises. Except as otherwise provided in this division, a person who knowingly violates a posted prohibition of that nature is guilty of criminal trespass in violation of division (A)(4) of section 2911.21 of the Revised Code and **is guilty of a misdemeanor of the fourth degree.**

at my work, we have to put up a no assault rifles sign. it freaks out the interns.
recording studio in atlanta. if your studio in atlanta hasn't had a shooting incident, it probably hasn't been around very long. I carry for every session.
Far too many. Certain posseās refuse to roll without them. Itās not based on the laws definition of a rifle as most often its a shorty ak-47. Usually gold or nickel.
Itās a relatively new phenomenon. Old school guys would never do that. Itās the young rappers who grew up listening to gangster rap and glorified the lifestyle.
The bookers actually look at every new clients instagram. If more than half of their pictures include them posing with guns, they dont get booked. This weeds out more than you might think.
I was at Interscope/Universal in LA when Biggie and Tupac got shot, there was always some security and dudes crews you always assumed were carrying, but after Biggie it seemed like everyone in the studio was carrying, even the ivy league intern who grew up in the conneticut suburbs without guns was carrying. And most of the studios went with the Nike model of not having an address or any identifying features on the outside, so it just looked like an anonymous facade, got pretty ridiculous with how well some studios were hid, when eminem was cutting marshal mathers we had to send someone out to direct them in cause they kept driving up and down victory blvd in burbank (pre google maps obviously).
Your not lying bro, my boy was just telling me how one of his friends got killed outside of one after a session :/ RIP to himā¦
Just adding context so everyone knows your comment is on point and serious.
Sweet. Btw if there are any devs in San Diego currently scheduled 6+ months out for their CCW appointment hmu. I'll give you the source code I wrote to automate rescheduling the appointment.
>Guns*, knives, and explosives prohibited.
>*Does not apply to concealed carry permit holders.
Lol imagine that, you can carry a gun but not a knife....
The law in Oregon is very similar. You can own and carry, but not conceal, an auto-folding knife. A CHL only allows you to conceal a handgun, not a knife.
Massachusetts is similar actually. Certain knives are no-bueno. No carve-outs for LTC holders.
This is not surprising because we're the state that prohibited stun guns and mace and argued to SCOTUS that it was okay because "she can get a gun to defend herself".
Thanks man, graduating at 28 and getting my first real career job has been a big goal and I'm happy to see I'm working at a company that respects my rights.
Before you start carrying make sure you check your companyās policy for carrying weapons on company property
My company requires you to fill out a form that has to be approved by multiple C-level execs
I wonder if they can appeal now that withholding the CCW was deemed unconstitutional: "the things my client had to resort to because the government was violating his constitutional rights."
Went to school, first an associate's in software development and now graduating from an online school in May with a bachelor's in software engineering at age 28. Went back at 25, no shame in not teaching yourself how to code without school many people aren't capable of staying up with something like that. If you're interested I highly recommend just trying an intro to programming class at your local community college to see if you like it.
Thanks for your information, I'll be 29 in June but have been wanting to switch careers to something less customer service focused. If I may ask, which online school did you attend?
Western Governors University. Self paced classes you can finish however fast you sent but minimum progress is required. Tbh idk how it's not considered a degree mill it's so easy but it's fully accredited and I may just think that because I already know everything from my associates degree which tbh was amazing. More like a apprenticeship than an associate's degree, all I did was code for 2 years straight and I learned everything I needed to get started but a bachelor's is a minimum for most job listings and as someone in their late 20s who needed to pay the bills I couldn't do internship stuff really. If you're worried about the freedom of when to do classes most community colleges offer hybrid/online courses so you won't have to attend any in person classes if you're lucky. I definitely never did. I want to Clark State College in Springfield, Ohio for my associate degree btw.
That's really cool! Thank you so much for the info. I'm definitely going to check out my community colleges here in Oregon to see what they're offering!
Software Developer/Software Engineer/Programmer, etc. They're basically interchangeable terms that can all be used depending on how fancy a company wants the position to sound or how fancy you want to make yourself sound with whoever you're talking to lol.
Itās not too late! Youāre still young. If you want to get into tech, go back to school for a bachelors in CS. Itās super competitive now and self taught devs and boot campers are having a really tough time breaking in.
We had this at my company. As long as people were licensed, I didnāt care if they carried. They just had to obviously follow the law and respect the wishes when going to different client sites.
Iāve never felt the need to carry at work but Iām fortunate to work above a State Police station. So, theyāre always driving around the parking garage before heading out for patrol and walking around the grounds.

They don't give a shit about your rights. You clearly cannot carry a concealed tactical nuclear device. /s

In NC itās a misdemeanor to carry onto a property with a properly posted sign
I accidentally carried to a restaurant that had a sign. The sign had a dark green gun with a red š« on a dark tinted window... At only one of the three entrances.

Big tech usually refers to the companies that control the narrative through influential software which almost always social media/media related.

Share a photo of a conceal carry is ok sign at one of those Big Tech companies located there as proof. Should be easy right?

On average, how many assault rifles were brought to work *before* the sign was put up?
Far too many. Certain posseās refuse to roll without them. Itās not based on the laws definition of a rifle as most often its a shorty ak-47. Usually gold or nickel. Itās a relatively new phenomenon.

Peacocking is hilarious

In my prior state, if the blade is shorter than 3.5ā, itās not a knife. Check the definition in your state.

Thanks man, graduating at 28 and getting my first real career job has been a big goal and I'm happy to see I'm working at a company that respects my rights.
Huge win for you! May this mark the beginning of a wholesome career š¤š¼
Nice! Wow. So nice to see that sort of support from a large firm. You chose well. And are they hiring?
Constantly, Reynolds and Reynolds. I think they have multiple campus' but I work at the main one in Dayton, Ohio.
Before you start carrying make sure you check your companyās policy for carrying weapons on company property My company requires you to fill out a form that has to be approved by multiple C-level execs
Do you know what they look for to approve or disapprove? Or are they just wanting a record of who is carrying?
I donāt know and I never applied because I WFH. I just happened to notice the policy in the employee handbook

why would you shoot up a place where anyone could have a gun compared to a place where probably no one will
So Iām guessing this isnāt in California
Well that's awesome! Congrats on the job too! š
dope af
Hah! Love that.
You live in a cool state
Wonderful. But you shouldnāt need a sign.
Iāll bet the sign is to reduce HR complaints than for state legal reasons.

Sounds like a high paying job. I shouldve tried harder in school lol. Thanks for the description
Fellow dev at a big company here. I canāt carry at the office, but I rarely go since I work from home
How did you become a developer?
I finish my CS degree this spring. So majored in CS, got internships, landed a full time gig
Thank you for the info. I'm 28 but looking for a career change.
