Today, my license to carry a gun expired because my manager forgot to renew it. As I'm an armored car guard, this is a problem. In order to keep getting hours, my company transferred me to the coin vault. I just finished moving 15000 lbs of boxed coins. By hand. I'm stuck doing this for a month. FML

In Canada you need a gun licence to own firearms. To actually carry one you need to qualify annually with your company and they apply for your ATC (authorization to carry) I requalified in August and reminded my manager in September. He forgot to apply for my ATC. Nothing I could do to prevent this.

You'll have your own 'guns' by the end of the month. Call it a blessing in disguise.

I don't understand why the manager is responsible for renewing YOUR gun license? Generally if something is required for a job(certifications, licenses, etc), it's your responsibility to maintain it.

Don't complain. Most people don't have a job right now and even though you kind of got demoted, at least they didn't tell you to come back when the problem was fixed. 15000lbs sucks but not having a job is worse.

I work Fo an armored company as well keeping your P.A.L up to date is your own responsibility. The only thing the managers have to worry about is your A.T.C. It's a good thing they moved you to the coin room a d didn't fire you. Where I work that's what they would of done

Just ask to be transferred back an if they tell you no cuz of not having a gun license just say " I don't need a gun, I kill motherfuckers with my hands!"
