With the weather finally warming up around here I'll be OC about 95% of the time now. I have only been 21 for about 7 months now. You have to be 21 to OC/CC in Washington. Since I have been able to legally carry, I have always been wearing a jacket every time I have needed to go to my credit union. I have never went out of my way to OC by taking my jacket off.
My CU doesn't have a no weapons sign, but they do have a sticker on their doors saying something along the lines of "Remove sunglasses and hats. No display of weapons". I hardly consider OCing while going about your daily business a display, but obviously that is not my call. I'm not going call or go in CC and ask for their policy, AKA ask for permission to do something legal. I plan to go in there with my pay check, hopefully deposit it as normal, and leave as I normally would without a negative encounter. That's the plan anyways... But, that brings me to the entire point of this thread. I have been with these guys for quite a while. Long enough that I had my parents with me when I opened my first account. I am pretty green when it comes to procedures on closing accounts and such.
If they tell me I need to lose the gun or leave, what is the process for closing an account? Do I get a cashiers check made out to me? I will obviously attempt to reason with the employee / manager, but will not think twice about about doing my banking elsewhere if they don't allow OC.
