The office rules may ban shorts, but they don't say anything about skirts!

      The common and correct workaround.

      Feels like it happens often, but AI blogspam like the article isnt gonna fully write itself.

        In many Asian countries, it’s completely normal to wear a sarong. It’s basically a skirt, if you ask any Westerner. It keeps your lower body cool and comfortable even in hot weather.

          A kilt is both warm and cool.

    Good for him, but also surprised. Nobody else said “you’re from the UK, and kilts are Scottish…” and ran with that?

      We had bus fare controllers in my city that did that a few years ago.

      They wore kilts because as usual the dresscode allowed for female clothes like skirts etc.

      There is probably hundreds of example of that specific malicious compliance.
