    Well
    that's interesting
    I take care of George Boedecker Senior's pasture (yes, the founder's dad, he's told me all about it)
    I carry all the time.

    Wonder how he would feel about that.

    I would also notify the NRA (provided you are a member) as they are fighting these things all the time. Pete Boyles of KHOW just got a CCW so it is near to his heart as well, and he is a crusader. I will spend some time notifying some retailers that I will not pruchase Crocs from them. Sportman's Warehouse (where I spend a bunch of money on camping stuff) comes to mind...

    Default Thanks guys

    In the company hand book it said nothing about carrying, but I think that it might have been this girl i use to date there too. Her and i went shooting a while back, she had never been and we just started talking about going shooting and 4 months ago she got laid off, but before she did she broke up with me. Then started seeing another guy at work and right before the holiday weekend he and i had a disagreement over work related items and since he and my Ex are best friends with the HR girl the said he owns guns and that is the same guy that was in my CCW class, but he did not get his card because he has a few drug related incidents. I just talked to a guy there and he is friends with this guy he belives thats how it went down. thanks for the support guys God bless

    Daniel187, your posts are not exactly easy to follow, but let me see if I have this straight:

    1. You were an employee of Crocs.
    2. You have a CCW and carried at work.
    3. The employee handbook says NOTHING prohibiting firearms.
    4. You were called into HR and terminated on the spot for carrying at work, without any warning or prior explanation that this was not allowed.
