    Galician, I think your last sentence sums up your chances.

    Bummer.

    Yes, it's something of which I am aware. I had grown up hearing of Galicia as the Celtic region of Spain, so upon though learning of my Galician heritage I felt that I had found my own connection to the Celtic world.

    Since then, I have learned how many--even here on this site--are less than accepting of this historical heritage. That gives me pause on whether the effort to have my wearing a kilt accepted due to my own Celtic connection would be worth the effort.

    My wearing of a kilt outside of work, of course, is still my own personal choice of attire, regardless of any Celtic connection.

    Unrelated to the workplace issue, I had never heard of Galicia until recently. I have to tell you, after the 5 nations party at Klub 45, those Spanish and French Celts really know how to party. I was impressed.
