Take your Gun to work day.

Had this Tom Peters type, productivity-enhancement inspiration the other day.

You've heard of 'Take your child to work' day, right? I've got a better idea: How about a Take your Gun to work day?

It occurred to me that the people who fail to show up that day are the ones that probably ought to be fired. Before he could get out of the parking lot, my boss would undoubtedly be so covered with laser dots that he could pass for a measles poster child, so I doubt that he'd show up.

Just a thought.

Hmmm, figure there's a little correlation there?


I'd rather not state if I take mine to work everyday or not.

Company has a pretty strict no guns on company property rule.

Yea with the price of fuel I thought about packing my 40cal Glock. But the D.O.T. kind of frowns on packing heat in a comercial vehicle especially when your loaded with gas.

Yeah I was going to say that too. I take my pistol (I never forget what my drill Sargent had to say about my gun! ) to work and usually two of them. One in my pocket an one in the truck.
