Just updating - no news yet on my inquiry since some of the HR folks are still out of the office.

Thanks for the kind words in many of the posts. For those who were denied the option of kilted attire at work: my condolences and prayers that I don't join your ranks.

KCW - if I remember correctly, we exchanged notes during your foray last year. I was glad all worked out so well for you.

Chris Webb - your suggestion was my tactic with the company I recently left (BTW my departure was not kilt related -- I'd just had my fill of them). In this circumstance, however, I feel discretion is the better of valor. This is a small, top-notch outfit I joined thanks to a former co-worker who is once again a co-worker. I don't want my actions to cast him in any negative light nor do I want to risk getting the boot.

When something substantive pops up, I'll pass the word.
