It's busibodyitis gone wild. They want a copy of your CHL so they can make sure and tell you not to carry on the job, and document that even though you have a CHL you've specifically been informed that they will not permit employees to be able to defend themselves in the event of someone committing an illegal act (from which they will make no effort to protect you or the rights of your heirs should such occasion arise).austin wrote:I am a bit confused.
They have a no weapons policy but wanted a photocopy of your CHL?
If they have a no weapons policy, then why would they care about your CHL?
I would think it would be the other way around. You have a CHL and you want to carry, so they ask for a copy for their records and let you carry.
They have no reason to see your CHL.
Basically, they are determined to make SURE that only criminals can carry on their premises.
Of course, they don't see it as that. What they have convinced themselves of is that only their employees could possibly commit an act of violence in the workplace, and so to protect everyone from said violence, no employees will be allowed to carry. After all, we're all civilized, and there's no need for you to be able to protect yourself in the workplace, because no one will do you any harm (except, of course, for the other employees who might loose it and shoot the place up which is why they aren't allowed to carry too, and prohibiting all employees from carrying has always been effective in the past... except that in every single instance I can think of workplace shootings company policies, not to mention laws, were ignored...)
