Gun at work question.

Locking your desk is usually intended to keep out cleaning crew or co-workers, but NOT someone with authority to get into your files, and otherwise items in your desk are either the property of or searchable by management or those with express authority.

Speaking of keys for desks and such, a couple years ago I was given a desk at work but nobody had the key to be able to lock it. I did some searching online and was a bit surprised to find this site:

http://www.cubiclekeys.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Put in the brand and key number that's stamped on the lock and they'll happily send you the key for just about any desk, filing cabnet, etc. Sure enough, I ordered the key for my desk and it worked perfectly.

Moral of the story is, desk, cubicle, and filing cabinet locks are not secure.

Hey guys I have a sort of legal question about carrying at work.

I work in an office building and employer has no firearm policy, no sings on the building so I am legal to carry at work. No problems there. We have two floors of the building and one floor has a room with some gym equipment. I typically use it a couple times week, and my wife and I jog a couple times a week. Here is my predicament. I just got my CHL and have been carrying for a whopping 3 days .

I haven't been into the gym(room) since I have been carrying, but would like to continue to use it. My question is what do i do with my gun. I can lock it up in a filing cabinet in my office, but I'm not sure of the legal ramifications there. With a CHL do I have to be in possession of the firearm at all times? Can i legally lock it up in my office and still be ok? Any insight would be appreciated.

P.S. sorry if this is in the wrong section, wasn't sure where to put it.

I haven't read the other posts, but what I personally do for the gym is

1. put it in my backpack and carry that around the gym with me, it's in a semi-open pouch where it's still concealed, yet I can reach for it in a second.

2. Carry it in a 2 ring zip-up binder, I ripped the bindings out and it fits a glock23 in there perfectly, I don't like this option since I can't get to it as fast.

PS - I have my glock IN a HOLSTER while I'm doing this. Make SURE your trigger is COVERED.
