[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3125773, member: 5412"] The issue is with Ok being a fire at will state. Others aren't. Before the company accepts you for employment, most, at least the ones I've worked for required one to sign an agreement that your person/locker/tool box/lunch box, and your personal vehicle could be searched at any time at the will of the company. Presumably to search for stolen company items. If one doesn't allow the search, the company has the right to fire you, but you do have the right to not submit to the search. One of our businesses in town in Ponca, Conoco and a major lumber company Weyerhaeuser fought all the way to SCOTUS to keep guns out of their parking lot. They lost, but the clause that guns are allowed to be in a parking lot available to employees is pretty much ignored by those two companies. They will fire and litigate until your retirement savings are wasted. As a side note. The company I retired from had a no guns policy, but when we went through a major security overhaul after 911, I asked one of the security guards how he was going to defend his post in the event of a breach with a 9mm tupperware gun. His reply was he was going to get on the radio and head for the parking lot where the real firepower was located. [/QUOTE]
