Boardroom or Boardwalk, how high should one aspire?

When it comes to wearing shorts, how high should one aspire? I mean I am a new convert to wearing shorts to work. Altho I must admit that I err on the side of nun- like modesty since my two favorite pairs are just about 1-2 inches slightly above knees. Both black in colour and one has cuffs which according to some fashion experts give it a twist of formality and the other is just straight and very flattering. I wear it mostly for casual dining on girls night out and yeah, even on a date and for work sometimes, I team them up with short and long jackets.
But I would like to know some opinions about an article I read in the STAR metro on sunday ( 4th may 2008) about suitability of wearing shorts to work . The ones that they refer to as “shorts” are about 3 inches from the butt down and a good 6-7 inches from the knees and it is recommended that if in industries that allows for self expression and creativity, a pair of shorts in tweed or wool , with cuffs or without , it is okay . I am not quite sure about that , what do you think? I am dying to show off more of my legs in the boardroom, after I tone ‘em and give ‘em a good shave ( and no , you do not smell sourgrapes here) lols:-).

No.. I mean… yes? for certain types of career..
My friend who is working for Roxy-Quiksilver, he wears boardshorts to work - and definitely, there is nothing wrong with it.
Some of them can’t even accept formal skirts which are about half feet above the knees, can they accept shorts then? I worked for a lawyer before, and I was wearing the formal skirts in the length I have mentioned, and the lawyer who constantly showed off her cleavage told me that ‘it’s not sweet to wear a skirt in the length’.
You see, they can’t even accept formal skirts which are much longer than the shorts.
