Kilted Juror #6

[cessna152towser]

I occasionally wear my heavyweight black kilt when I am sitting as District Court Assessor, as a change from the more usual pinstripe trouser suit. Worn with plain leather sporran, black argyle jacket and black hose, white shirt and black tie and a black court robe which is open at the front but comes to ankle length at the back it presents a modest and businesslike outfit which does not detract from the dignity of the court and any comments I have had from the public or other court officials have all been favourable.

Every so often I attend City Council Meetings and of course they try to appear "professional" but one time I over heard two of the Council members talking, and mine said "Yep he's in my district, all the people know him as the kilted neighbor."

Just love those type of things.

It's maybe ridiculous, but I hate the bagpipe question most of all.

"Isn't it cold?"....I understand.
"What's under?"...pretty lame, but okey.
"Where's the bagpipe?...I HATE that question.

Welcome btw :grin:

Thanks Robin....the best thing about the entire week came when we broke for lunch I headed outside to grab some food. I heard this woman behind me go, "Oh for heaven's sake. It's like they've never seen a kilt before in their life..."

Apparently some police officers were pointing and staring as I left the courthouse...

Keep in mind...a lame remark always comes from someone who is narrow minded...says more about them. To be ignored, or just look them straight in the eyes...not too long...waste of time and energy.

Today I went to work on my day off, because some waitresses didn't seen me kilted...they asked me to drop by to show it.

My boss (he's an *******....sexist, racist, xenofobic, narrow minded...and pathetic in general) started to make funny remarks...I just gave him the "you are dirt" look. The waitresses on the other hand...they loved it..."sexy!", "manly!", "cool!" and so on, and so on....

Great lines and great story. Sounds like you have the wit and confidence to wear the kilt and not let anybody's comments get under your skin.

Geez, are you sure didn't miss anything? What a drag. Maybe you need a better job?
