If I get caught with a gun in my car in our parking lot and I not only lose my job, but I lose my access to any future jobs as soon as they ask why I left my previous job.

Sad comment on 'where we are' on carrying arms in a vehicle.
I take it you would approve of the GA. law proposed?

As of now, they don't do random vehicle searches of cars coming onto company property. But if you forget and leave one in your briefcase as you go through the metal detector ....
I think that if the parking lot is open to the general public, then the employer has a harder case to make. OTOH, he is your boss! If you don't like his policies, work to convince him otherwise or go find another job.

So you approve of his 'right' to prohibit arms in vehicles?

Which is it? Do you have a right to carry in your vehicle, or not?

I have the right to carry a gun in my vehicle. I do not have the right to tresspass another's premises with my gun in my vehicle.

Clever non-answer. -- You are not trespassing - you are an employee with a right to carry a gun in your vehicle, -- as you admit.

-- The question remains, does your employers attempt to prohibit arms in vehicles meet with you approval?

I AM trespassing. He has clearly posted "NO WEAPON" on entry to the site. If I choose to carry a weapon, I am not abiding by his rules for allowed use of his property.

I don't understand your question.

Do you agree with the proposed GA bill that you pointed me to?

You said you agreed with the GA bill. Given that, one can infer that you agree with my employer's right to prohibit uncontrolled guns on his property.
