    Bangkok Kilt

    I dont know how things work in Bangcock, but I work in the Bronx, NYC DOE 4th largest school district in the world (yes you all do edge us out) but I wear a kilt 3 times a week on average.

    I catch some flack from the kids, but I get "props" from others and in general it is a NON issue. I have not heard a thing from my bosses other than admiration. My co-workers are supportive if not immatitive; but I have had some guys ask to "borrow" some of my kilts.

    Go For IT!! You would be surprised how little it matters. Keep a stiff upper lip and when they say "nice skirt" you answer "kilt, and thank you". Seriously dude, just do it. Three days straight of kilts later, all have moved on and they are surprised when you wear pants. Funny to hear a kid say "yo, you wearing PANTS today? where your skirt?" (its a kilt thank you, and I had to wash it)

    Really, if you do your job, they cant say *****. Plus, I have never had better attendance since I started wearing a kilt. Check out Utilikits Experiment some time.

    Eff Em if they cant take a joke.

    You could always keep a kilt at the office and put it over the bike shorts!

    This kilt goes with me on my bike at all times.
    Off-bike, it keeps the ladies from whistling at the tight Spandex shorts.

    I like the idea & maybe we coudl add something along the lines of having an male figure of ascending ages used with the red 'x's:

    Bound Up = a crying baby in diapers
    Tucked In = a pouting toddler in short pants
    Pinched = a sullen teen in overtly tight jeans
    Overheated = a smug yuppie in a suit
    Crushed = an overworked office drone in dockers
    Kilted = a man of maturity, smiling and looking as if he is enjoying life

    any thoughts...???
    ITS A KILT, G** D*** IT!

    The commonwealth of PA won't fire ANYWAY. Half the people in my old office wore sweatpants and slippers. Now you, being non-civil service (aka non-union) may have a bit more to worry about, but I really doubt it.

    I think you get more cr4p from your neighbors than you ever would at the office. On that note, you are more than welcome to lift weights with me any time you like or go to the pistol range.

    Lift weights...

    Now you really should warn people when you are going to make jokes like that I almost spit my beer on my laptop.

    I know you lift weights as much as I do, one twelve ounce curl at a time

    16oz, my friend - reel beer comes in pints. Which you can have tomorrow if you decide to come and hang with the big dogs.

    However, I actually do lift 3 times a week.
