The last year I have been a stay at home dad to take care of my boy. Wear a kilt a few times a month and often to my new group "New World Celts"...
Fun times
I have been working as a "Free-lance" film/television production person - I'm a non-union Director of Photography (and occasionally a director) - and if or when I win an Oscar for some film I worked on, you know I will be wearing a kilt when I am onstage.
I too an a stay at home dad, most of the time (two beautiful kids, one each flavor). I'm kilted most of the time, including shoots, check out the web site.

Grass skirts- the new occupational tartan of landscapers.

Wow, I chimed in late...
Well, I'm a university student and I wear a kilt about 2 or 3 times a week. I want to wear a kilt more often, but alas, I don't have enough....yet.
During the summer, I work in a machine shop, so a 13oz. wool kilt wouldn't work very well. Everyday I come home stained with oil, grease, paint, and sweat.
I guess I just need to get an IT job like the rest of you so I can wear my kilt to work!

I serve the People of the County of San Diego, California, and because the last thing I need to do is distract them from the business at hand (and they are, sadly, easily distratcted), I rarely wear my kilt to work.
But rarely means not never.
Morrison Green casual kilt a work.

I am yet another IT person.
I used to be an electronics technician, then became a computer operator, then a system manager, then a senior programmer/analyst, then a network administrator, then a helpdesk person, then did a brief stint as a software developer and now I'm sort of in limbo - a contractor working as a level three support person hoping to someday become a developer again after I am hired as a real employee in September.
I work for a large corporation that owns a large University based here in Phoenix. Anyway, I want to be hired as a real employee before I even approach the whole topic of kilts. This will be the first SERIOUS job I have had since 1998....if I get it.

kilted at work??
Hi folks
Ok - I don't wear a kilt at work (yet), but that's because I don't own a kilt (yet).
But just to join in on the whole thread, I'm kinda in an IT field - I'm a helpdesk operator for one of Australia's universities as well as a psychology student... so I guess I'll be able to wear a kilt without issue on my "student" days, however I may encounter opposition on my "work" days... only time will tell.
cheers

What a thread! I'm amazed at how many computer-based jobs I'm seeing- are tech people attracted to kilts, or are Scots just fascinated by technology? Hmmmmm… :confused:
Anyway, as an independent (very!) graphic designer and advertising consultant, I wear a kilt as my normal attire in the home office, and even on some client visits.
I wear jeans constantly on the motorcycles. I was formerly the Marketing Director for Fast Company (the company which makes the Kevlar-lined Draggin' Jeans), and was expected to wear the company's products for promotional purposes and as one of the primary "test dummies"- which means I have a closet FULL of jeans, Kevlar shirts, leather jackets, etc.
Any of you kiltmakers need help with your advertising? I make a great "test dummy"…
