In spite of kilts previously being banned at work I made a point of putting Tartan day on the calendar. When I managed to get away with a Utilikilt on St. Patricks I figured I could get away with it here too. (I packed jeans just in case) No problems! The GM just took one look and said "Oh, thats right, it's Tartan Day". Didn't even get much response from my previous detractors. At one point there was a couple with some small kids in the showroom. The kids were somewhat confused about "why is that man wearing a dress" and I overheard the GM explaining that I was observing the holiday. He took it so much for granted that he didn't even explain what holiday it was! The kids parents looked at each other and just shrugged, I guess they didn't want to confess ignorance of the holiday. I survived two holidays wearing previously banned clothes, I feel some small bit of solidarity with the Scots of old! Now I just need to start figuring out some more holidays to justify wearing the kilt some more.
