(12,072 posts)If AZ allowed him to continue to be employed it would, by example, be allowing any employee that had a permit to carry a gun. Personally, I think that is a good idea, but the insurers would go nuts. They would be liable for any bad shots fired by a permitted employee. The insurance companies don't understand that such bad shot by a CCWer are very rare.
I have personally carried in violation of company policy. I had a job as a night cashier in a parking lot with hundreds of dollars in the cash register, in a high crime area, no way to drop any excess. I knew that if I ever used the gun I would be fired, but I would be alive to hunt for a new job. I considered that a good reason to carry. Now I have a very low risk job in the country and it would be a felony if I carried, so I don't.
