To an extent I am sure. If I wore a nude suit with tinkerbell butterfly wings, I might still get hired, but I would be the last one they called.

    Everyone...thank you so much for all the wonderful replies. Getting to know all of you a little better just made my week. I feel like I just received a box of chocolate chip cookies in the mail

    Heya Jay,
    I had a similar feeling when i got all the responces to my 20 questions thread i started a while back. Its great to see how different but also how similar we all are and the wide array of interests & activities we engage in.

    now, If i could only get that nude suit/tinkerbell image out of my head.... AAARRRGGGHHH!!!!!
    ITS A KILT, G** D*** IT!

    I have a Handyman service I am my own boss so the only restrictions I have is the job I will be doing that day. If I am fixing sinks or crawling under houses or roofs I will be wearing shorts or overall.


    Now I have been wearing the Kilt socks clean shirt and a and then I get the Question "Are you Scottish?" to which I reply Welsh-Scottish. Recently some people have inquired where to get a hat like that. For Tartan day I wore my SWK BW wool to Salt Lake to get parts and was well received at the plumbing supply houses I went to. One of the counter clerks said he had a Cilt and if he knew it was tartan day he would have worn his. I also work as a DJ ( www.KPCW.org )and wear my kilt on my show and play bagpipe music behind the public announcements.
