I work for one of (if not the) largest entertainment corporations in the world at their Central Florida themepark...
Keeping with many of their policies' leftist-slant... I am obviously not allowed to have weapons of any type at work, or anywere on the property.
If I get caught with a weapon it is a terminable offense.
I don't feel like further discussing my normal routines with respect to this, other than to say that I'm NEVER really unarmed... you've always got your brain, and improvisation is always a good idea.
Some real kickers from the policy manual:
"3. Any vehicle used by an employee to come to or leave Company property, wherever located, is subject to search."
By this wording - I could come TO the company property - park just off of it and they "could still" search my car.... I'd like to see 'em try.
Under reasons for termination:
"C. Physically fighting on Company property or during a Company-sponsored event regardless of who began the fight."
Ahhh, I see - I'm not allowed to defend myself.... hahaha, yeah right.
"G. Possession of dangerous or unauthorized materials such as explosives, firearms, weapons, or other similar items on company property."
Of course this doesn't apply to the Company's secretive armed security force... that almost nobody knows anything about.
Of course this company also has a policy of "thought-policing." You literally cannot submit ideas to the company... if you do - company policy is to
"A. Stop reading or listening, and
B. If the material is written(whether on paper or transmitted electronically), send it to the appropriate person listed below along with the "Unsolicited Idea Submission" form which may be obtained from the Human Resources Department...."
So basically - they still want the idea... but just want to make sure they control who knows about it.
In my opinion this is a great way to take ideas from people, and take credit for them without reimbursing the individual for the idea.... Hence - when one of my bosses asks what I think - my standard answer is "I don't know - I don't get paid enough to think," or something along those lines.
