Kilted at work in New Mexico - the pics.
Here are a couple pictures of my first day kilted at work in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
Actually, these are not "at work" since I work at a facility where cameras are not allowed.


(You can even see a little bit of the road rash from when my truck dragged me across my driveway on April Fool's Day.)
After work, my daughter Heather took me out to Two Fools Tavern to celebrate National Tartan Day. Pictures of this can be found at http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/f...04/#post970868
After seeing how nice the kilt looked, my boss said: "You can wear the kilt to work anytme you want."

Congratulations on wearing the kilt to work. It is great to hear that your manager was open and accepting. I am in the same position on both a welcoming environment for kilt wearing at work and the no cameras rule.
The whole key is to dress professionally (I am better dressed than 99% of the other men at work) and you did that. It puts both you and the kilt in a better light. Watch out if you wear them frequently you may have the experience where women complain when you don't wear them!!

Well, I'll be wearing the kilt again today to work as my leg has yet to reduce to a size small enough to fit my *other* attire... I was thinking I'd go with the Jacobite style shirt this time -- but have yet to clear it with my wife I'm also thinking about wearing my Aussie-style fedora in lieu of the Glengarry .
