    Good story Al. "kilted at work" is one of my favourite topics.

    I had to visit a workshop I've not been to before yesterday.
    My mission was to signwrite an underground mining drill rig.

    I walked in, did the work and walked out, not a comment, and this was a true "blokey" workshop!

    I found the mechanics who were working around the rig quite friendly, one bearded, alternative type eyed me off, he was likely thinking that this was a new slant on "alternative"

    I see each job as one more promotion of the kilt as a viable, daily garment.

    Dang Al,

    If kilts for male bus drivers isn't common sense, I don't know what is.

    Maybe somewhere there's a survey or research project to be done to document the improved morale from testicular comfort.

    Wonder how many accidents or near misses have been caused by drivers in pain trying to readjust the boys while the bus is in motion.

    Maybe some day OSHA will REQUIRE all male bus, truck, and taxi drivers to be kilted for safety.

    I wish I could say I was kilted while working, rather than kilted while stopping by work on a day off. Perhaps if the supervisors follow up on their discussion about kilts and skirts, some day in the future Calgary will be the first Transit system to offer kilts as part of the uniform. As Ron pointed out...how many near-miss incidents are caused by drivers trying to re-adjust themselves while driving due to constrictive trousers? Perhaps I should apply for a government grant to do a study.
