The fact that you can be fired for any or no reason makes the parking lot law worthless in my opinion.

Do not ask HR, as once they say anything like "no you cant carry" then if caught, you are trespassing and subject to arrest (and firing)

If you do not ask HR and are caught, then the most is you can get fired.

Their policy says to me "if you carry, you are breaking policy and can be fired" But their policy does not make it illegal to carry there.

Negative. I'll ask HR about it tomorrow. I don't know if since I signed an agreement, if that makes the sign unnecessary. Even if so, I still don't think the wording is clear.
