Kilted Fridays Adventures

It's a kilt Friday for me! XMTS Freedom Kilt.

I work from home almost all the time. It's been over a year since I have been to my firm's office. I went in yesterday for a meeting. A new co-worker introduced herself and mentioned having met my boss earlier this week. "He told me not to be surprised if you showed up in a kilt.", she said.

I am actually glad that I wasn't kilted yesterday because a cheeseburger landed in my lap at lunchtime.

I know Chicago is called the "Windy City" but did not know it was known for flying cheeseburgers! Surely a sporran would have provided better protection than trousers (sorry, pants, your side of the pond.)

Our division was sold and divested out of the parent company, so yesterday was my last kilted-at-the-office day.

The good news is we kept our jobs with the new company, and I'm now working from home full-time.
Bit of a melancholy day after 21 years going to the office... but I won't miss the 18 hours a week spent commuting!

All in all, that sounds like good news to me. I`m sure you will adapt quickly to not having to leave the house!

Working from home would be great. Congrats!

Nothing exciting for my Kilted Friday, just sunshine and a nice day.

So today, I am kilted in one of my USA Kilts casuals in Malcolm modern tartan. One of the ladies where I work saw me distributing in the mailroom our weekly bulletin and said, "so you're in your ancestral attire, it must be Friday". Aye lass, I replied. She then shared she must make to Scotland and of course I encouraged her to do so.

Tonight, my lass and I head to one of the Irish pubs downtown to hear one of our local Celtic bands. A good way to end the week.

I had to enter one of our rentals today for an inspection, and when the door opened, the tenant immediately said "Dude, that's a sick kilt! I want one!"

We chatted a bit and I told him about the rabble.
