Scrappy, that sounds like a tailor-made Allyson question to me.
No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Scrappy, I'd go more with your description of what you're trying to say: We assist employees from various countries in obtaining work visas and acclimating themselves to US culture. Or something.
Coveragewise, yeah. It's no more worn than the jeans I've seen people wear. Less than a lot, in fact.
Then I don't see why it wouldn't be fine.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
We have worked with employees from diverse nationalities in providing support and assistance with work visas and other assistance.

Or something like that. Might help if you could be more specific about the type of assistance.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
if the skirt is generally work-appropriate or not.
For me the only question would be length / coverage. I've worn totally appropriate denim skirts at jobs where jeans were never appropriate, so...

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I think that as long as it's not too short, it would be appropriate anywhere jeans are appropriate. Or, what Cass said.

The acclimating part is generally referred to as "settlement".
Modifying Dana's:
We have provided support to employees from diverse nationalities in obtaining work visas and with settlement in their new communities.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I wore a denim skirt to my Oxford interview. Twenty years later I'm suddenly getting all appropriate?
My god, I can't believe my mother let me wear that. My blouse was very pretty, though.
I need more steel-toed shoes and more denim skirts, I'm suddenly convinced. But I don't need more shoes. And I don't need more clothes.

Now I'm worried that settlement is a Canadian usage, b/c every immgration reference I find to it is from Canada.

Thanks, y'all I smushed your excellent suggestions up into one, way improved, sentence and sent the whole document off to the VP.
