I'm Mad At You!!
Yes that was how I was greeted today at the coffee shop this AM. They coffee crew was I presume laying bets as to what tartan I was wearing today. Drew the one who greeted me with that comment said that that was not the tartan he wanted me to be wearing. Not sure which one he wanted, but I know it wasn't my Isle of Skye.
Go figure.

There’s no accounting for people who lay bets, especially when they concern you. Ignore the man, and enjoy whichever tartan you put on this morning.

Reply, "That is funny. Your wife was smilling and very happy when I left her this morning."
OR
Give him your number and have him call you to find out what you are wearing and offer to split the money with him. Then wear something different. Then he will have reason to be mad.
You may want to change coffee shops though. Have you seen the movie Waiting?

uh oh! Once the coffee crew knows you so well that they also know your tartan, it's time to find a new coffee shop 
Im just waiting for the crew at Subway to say "hey Meghan. Your usual?" one of these days. If that ever happens, I'm never going there again!

But Meghan, it is so nice to walk in there say Hi and get my drink. Of course I also change up my order when I think that they seem to comfortable with it.
It is also great to hear that some people come in just to talk to the Kilted guy.

I think it's pretty cool that the coffee crew A) expected you to be kilted and B) cared about which tartan you might wear

Of course A coffee shop is probably the best place to have that done. If it were McDonalds, I'd worry. A bar, I'd worry. lol.

I am on the same camp as Colin. I would take it as a compliment that the coffee shop folks 1) treat me as not just another passing customer; 2) know me well enough to realize I have several kilts that I wear regularly; and 3) are comfortable enough with me to get mad at me. Besides, a comment like that isn't to be taken seriously, especially given that this is really a business relationship. It's small talk. Kilt on and wish him the best of luck on the next bet. Also, what's so bad about a place of business knowing what you want?
