    Thank you for the kind welcome

    As best I can tell from my research, an employer's right to set dress codes in the U.S has been affirmed in both arbitration and court proceedings. Although clothing related to one's religion has managed to trump the employer's wishes on occasion, I don't find any examples where the employee's preference or their cultural heritage prevails. As my wife says, "You know honey, you do work for the government."

    Things always change. When I retire in a few years, I can look for an employer that allows kilts.

    I probably talked to your uncle then. I flew extensively out of MRI in the mid-seventies and eighties when it was one of the busiest general aviation airports in the country. Still fly occasionally.
