Guns in the workplace! :cmbirthday:

Please give me my breakfast.

I don't care what you think about guns and who should or shouldn't have them. This is not a political thread and I will ban you if you air your stupid opinions. This is about guns in the workplace and good guns in workplace stories. How did your co-workers endanger or protect your life? Did something go off in your pants?


I started working at the same Steel Detailing firm my cousin worked at in Baton Rouge a few weeks after Katrina hit. Apparently in the first week after the hurricane one of our bosses brought his gun to work because he was terrified of all the black people who might try and loot the business. He wouldn't go outside without somebody with him and had my cousin walk in front of him while openly brandishing the gun in public.


Jam it back in, in the dark.

You Ukrainians, I swear.

Similar thing happened to me at the same job site. One of my co-workers was an ex-marine, hardcore stuff, served in Marine Recon in both Afghanistan and Iraq. He had transferred from UCLA to LSU because their accounting program is hot shit, and like most marines he was kind of a shithead. My personality grated him a little bit and one time while we were out at his car he showed us his .40 caliber pistol that he kept in the glove compartment of his mini coop. He made extra sure that I got a good look at it and it didn't dawn on me until later that he was passive aggressively threatening me by showing me the gun (I'm not just projecting, he just sort of thought like that). I didn't think it was a big deal, though, since it was empty threat.

He was a fun drunk, though.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

No offense, Zeph but I was expecting you to have the most interesting gun story. Shin was the last person I expected to have a great guns-at-work story.
