    Good luck with your proposal. I work at a non-profit as well. Our charity has a diversity policy that they are trying to institute province wide. It has helped open dialogue in some offices about culture and how it affects the work place. Luckily I work in a very small office and my co-workers are really nice people.

    Oddly enough my boss poked her head in my office the other day and asked "when is kilt season it should be soon!" A co-worker and I last year wore our kilts to work on St. Andrews Day, the Friday before Burns night and Tartan Day. I think she is just looking for the home made Cock-a-Leekie soup I bring to celebrate Burns's Birthday.. but you never know.

    Good luck again,
    Sara

    Did you tell her the kilt *never* goes out of season?

    Good luck with your proposal Phogfan86 I hope it goes well for you. Please keep us posted on your progress. Hopefully it will be taken care of with your immediate boss and you will not have to push it higher up the pecking order. It sounds like you have handled your part with professionalism, lets see how she handles things on her end.
