    Hey, RJI.
    As Robert said, I work for a financial institution (one of the world's smallest) and I've been wearing the kilt to work full-time since April (or thereabouts).

    I work in IT. Don't meet the 'public', so to speak.
    I did check the dress code and could find no reason why I should not be comfortable. So now I am.

    Even the CEO (after the initial giggling) seems fine with the kilt(s).

    Wear the kilt with respect and confidence. Who can argue with that?

    Robert - no change in the 'no leather' policy at work, but I still want one.
    After all, I don't spend all my time at work, eh?
    I'm thinking the dark navy blue . . . . as soon as the budget allows.
    OK - maybe before.

    As luck would have it, you will have some time to save. It has been really successful at the games this summer and word of mouth, that I am booked till the end of November, and that's me building kilts 6 days a week 12 hour days..... I have one more show to do and that's this weekend in Owen Sound....
    But I would be happy to build you one whenever you're ready
    Cheers

    Awesome Silver, I plan on going into teaching as well when I get out of college. Glad to hear kilts are accepted in at least one school system.

    Thanks for the reply. How large is the organization? I am planning on wearing the kilt to some after work functions over the next few months and then try to get it approved to wear for work by the end of this year and then be able to wear it when I want going into the new year.

    Oops! Just noticed the comment in parenthesis that it is one of the world's smallest! Read right over that!
