because he is going to refuse,to leave his gun at home,

I guess it would be up to your friend as to whether his job is that important.

I work at a place where Federal Law prohibits carry and even having a firearm in my car. It's a great job with security, so I go by the rules, also I could go to jail.

When driving to work is the only time i don't have a firearm...

If he works at an Autozone in teh state of Kentucky, then state law protects his right to have a firearm in his car while parked in the store parking lot. Unless he drives a car belonging to autozone, then they cant do anything about it. It even provides recourse against any company who punishes him for said gun.

anyone tried to o/c at autozone? the reason i ask

is a friend of mine just started carring and works

at autozone was told the not only could he not carry

at work but he could not have the gun in his car,

i'm going to test this as a customer sometime this week,

this is a stripmall autozone and not a corp.owned store or parking lot,

and there are no signs posted.
Autozone does not have a policy against customers carrying. I have ongoing dialog with them at corporate over a manager asking me to leave a store in Washington. As soon as I have a letter I will post it.


In regard to not being able to lock it in a vehicle (In Kentucky)? See the following:
KRS 237.106
Employers not permitted to prohibit weapons on property, if kept in a vehicle on that property
(1) No person, including but not limited to an employer, who is the owner, lessee, or occupant of real property shall prohibit any person who is legally entitled to possess a firearm from possessing a firearm, part of a firearm, ammunition, or ammunition component in a vehicle on the property.
(2) A person, including but not limited to an employer, who owns, leases, or otherwise occupies real property may prevent a person who is prohibited by state or federal law from possessing a firearm or ammunition from possessing a firearm or ammunition on the property.
(3) A firearm may be removed from the vehicle or handled in the case of self-defense, defense of another, defense of property, or as authorized by the owner, lessee, or occupant of the property.
(4) An employer that fires, disciplines, demotes, or otherwise punishes an employee who is lawfully exercising a right guaranteed by this section, and who is engaging in conduct in compliance with this statute shall be liable in civil damages. An employee may seek and the court shall grant an injunction against an employer who is violating the provisions of this section when it is found that the employee is in compliance with the provisions of this section.
(5) The provisions of this section shall not apply to any real property:
(a) Owned, leased, or occupied by the United States government upon which the possession or carrying of firearms is prohibited or controlled;
(b) Of a detention facility as defined in KRS 520.010; or

"quote:Why doesn't he just leave the gun in his car and keep his mouth shut about it? They can't search his car. If they ever do find out about it he's protected by state law.
KRS 237.106
