    i now join the ranks of RiverKilt

    sent an email to my boss about being Kilted on Friday (Fridays are usually our Casual/Jeans day) for St Patty's.

    see below:


    My email:

    I just wanted to make sure it was ok that I wear a Kilt on Friday in honor of St Patrick's Day.


    Her response:

    I DON'T THINK SO! You can however wear something green.

    It is easier to ask for forgiveness than ask for permission:
    "Gee I guess I had no idea you'd object to me honoring my heritage..."

    If your kilt is green wear it anyway. It's laundry day and this is the only thing green I have...except my underware...but I left that at home too

    just really disappointing. one week she's like "if that's what you want to do, do it." now it's, "No, you can't."

    Without really intending to, I went that road. Those who know me would not think that was typical for me, although I'd said a few days earlier to my boss would he object and he said it was fine. I don't think he thought I'd really do it, however...

    Weird world we live in...it makes no sense. The 21st century....well nothing really changed since the Middle Ages. Burn to the stake what we fear or just don't understand.
