I too understand the complicated work drama. I carry a Glock 22 and pepper spray every day for work. About a month ago my area manager stopped by and realized the clip in my back pocket was a knife, which isn't uncommon a decent amount of us carry knives or multitools. He explained to me that by company policy we cannot have any weapons on us at work. I laughed and gestured to my gun and the explained to him it was not a knife it was a tool and that I would never even think of using it as a weapon. So that's the story of how everyone at my work started carrying seat-belt cutters, sandwich slicers, emergency rescue tools, and package openers. I get the stupid company policies but you have to take into account if you feel unsafe does that job pay you enough to risk your life? If yes then I suggest carrying a knife or deep carry concealing a handgun because even if they do search cars I seriously doubt they do pat downs. If no then good luck with the job hunt. I did door to door sales in Flint, MI for about six months before I decided it was not worth the pay (the pay was really good).
