    Working for an engineering firm and outside on the jobsite nearly everyday around machinery, asphalt, concrete and the like I wouldn't think of wearing my kilt to work. In fact our dresscode, such as it is, doesn't even allow the wearing of shorts. However evenings and weekends are another matter.

    We have a business casual atmosphere where I work. As long as I keep up a neat appearance, the bosses don't care. They did at first, but HR said that it is protected by co. policy as cultural.

    They did? My HR said the opposite, even though, as I pointed out, the company was founded by a Scotsman.

    Omni-Group makes applications & games for MacOS. I was trying to make a pun off the words omni & giant.
