Thats all very funny. I ran into the almost the exact situation at a workplace in Boise. They wouldn't let the male nurses wear shorts, but the girls could wear knee high skirts. It got freaking hot in Boise in August. I found the new policy to be BS and let the nursing directory know. She was a freaking biatch. Gawd I still hate her.
Anyways I threatened to wear a kilt to work. My administrator said if I did he would give me a raise. He didn't like the nursing director either. She changed her mind when she realized I was enjoying the attention. It had nothing to do with acting gay. It had everything to do with sweaty nutz.
