[QUOTE="soberups, post: 643026, member: 14668"] UPS is a company that frequently promotes myths and often lives in a parallel, fantasy universe. Consider the "weapons-free workplace" rule. Our "security" consists of an [I]unarmed[/I] guard, earning minimum wage to sit behind a malfunctioning metal detector that screeches and beeps every time the door to the guard shack opens. There is also a [I]piece of paper[/I] taped to the wall that proclaims our facility to be a "weapons-free zone". What it [I]really [/I]is...is a corporate-sanctioned killing zone chock full of [I]unarmed[/I] and helpless victims for any nutcase who decided to go in there with a weapon. The metal detector, [I]unarmed[/I] guard and the "no weapons" sign are a great way for the company to get that warm, fuzzy feeling of safety....but God help us when someone down there decides to go postal. The [I]unarmed[/I] guard will simply be the first one to die, and by the time the cops showed up there is no telling how many [I]unarmed [/I]employees will have been shot and killed while in the safety of their "weapons-free workplace". Psycho murderers have been known to disregard signs that forbid weapons in the areas they intend to kill people. They have also been known to disregard laws that prohibit murder. The accused Fort Hood murderer is but one example...the only thing he [I]couldnt[/I] disregard is the [B]armed[/B] guard that shot him 4 times with her weapon and forced him to stop the killing.
