Kicked out of work for wearing kilt

[Kilted in Maine]

Point is he had permission.

I do see that he had been given permission to wear a kilt. I don't see that he was given permission to deviate from the dress code.

The dress code is a white above the waist, and black below.

The POINT I was making is that he could have worn the kilt and still have been within the dress code.

I am not condoning with the supervisor did (far from it!!). What he did was wrong and it should be addressed to his superiors. All I am saying is a white shirt with the rest of the outfit would have given him a stronger argument to dispute the decision. As is, he may be left with just the WAY the message was conveyed to him.

Right or wrong the dress code is in place for a reason. I assume it is to have the employees, as a group stand out, from the customers who may be seeking assistance. His attire would likely cause him to stand out but not necessarily as an employee.
