Following on... Verizon wireless in Eagan
This story reminds me of something that just happened to me last week. I went into the Verizon Wireless store in Eagan, asked for help and was helped, they had not noticed me OC'ing. As soon as I had turned to go to the help desk I heard a slightly disgruntled and heasitant voice behind me saying "Sir.... sir?" I turned around and the lady and a gentleman told me that Firearms were not permitted in their stores. (Mind you, there was no signage saying otherwise). It was a "Corporate Policy" (their words, not mine). None the less, I informed them that I was carrying well within my rights according to the law, and that there was nothing saying that firearms were not welcome on the property. I asked if I could stay and let me finish what I was there to do, and they let me, but reinforced the fact that guns were not welcome. Later on I was having more issues with my phone, so I called the tech support line, and talked to a really awesome lady, and went on and on, then she asked how I liked dealing with VZW... I told her I loved it up until today, and explained everything that happened. She was appalled by the fact (her seeing that I get a gov't discount) that I was asked to leave and told that it was a corporate policy. She then talked to her manager and informed me that no such policy was in place, and that I have every right to carry in their stores.
So, thats my long winded story... any suggestions? Do I continue going to that store, do I request to speak to their boss, do I request a call with corporate while in the store? What do ya think?
