Who can possibly have a legitimate complaint about someone wearing a kilt, and actually bring that complaint to HR????
I think it was a clash of culture, actually. We had a lot of people of migrant background and it's the sort of thing some sorts of Asians would do: say to their manager that they were uncomfortable seeing someone in another area wearing a "skirt"... Ironically, I would probably have gotten away with it if I'd chosen one of our International Food Days. And the kilt was tartan.
