I worked for Advance Auto Parts for almost 10 years part time. I quit Labor Day weekend. I always carried even though policy said otherwise. We had several instances of people casing us but being deterred by us or customers because we were observant. I carried a .380 Kel-Tec in summer and a 1911 in winter, until last spring when 3 linebacker size guys walked in at 5:15 and walked behind the counter to find the location of the safe and loudly stated it's right here and then left. I ordered a pocket holster for my Kimber Ultra Carry and carried it until I quit.
Corporate isn't really concerned with employee safety and most of the people I worked with at the end were not really observant and really didn't seem to care about their safety. At one time there were 6 of us carrying while at work. The worst they could do is fire me.
Most of the parts stores allow the public to carry but not employees. I saw quite a few opencarriers were I worked. I always told them of VCDL and OCDO and gave them some info also.
