The modern kilt was never designed for everyday workwear in the modern workplace, it may be ok wearing it occassionally as I have done at work but for day in and day out wear with the variety of tasks that can crop up then the kilt is a non-starter.
It may be ok for a few days but even the most sedentary job requires activity and agility from time to time, tasks such as fixing things that go wrong, bringing in deliveries from vans, moving office equipment about, perhaps its not in the job description to do these tasks but we all have to muck in at times to keep the place running.
The kilt is always best for leisure and social pursuits, here its the best form of dress for a man

I can respect that. I am the oposite. I wear my kilt at work on occasion in the summer when I teach on-the-road driver education, but I never wear a kilt teaching in the classroom. I would make it a point to wear kilts whenever activity and agility is required and reserve the sedentary jobs for pants.
I am one of those people that would like to see kilts as every day workwear and dress kilts as common as suits. Kilts are functional and practical everyday clothing to me.
