You don't forget you have your weapon, and you assume all weapons are loaded and ready to fire at all times. That's basic firearm safety and this person you're mentioning works in a gun store and really should know better.

I mean if I am going to and from the field and carrying a weapon, I am not going to stop in at the bank or on campus, where guns are verboten and just forget I have it.
Yeah I don't know how you can forget you have a deadly weapon on your person, especially as a firearm has a good weight to it. If you do, you shouldn't be carrying, because that is incredibly irresponsible.
