Practical fashion advice needed
There are many things to like about the new job I begin tomorrow.
The hours, for starters: M-Th 11-7 and F 11-3. The world is run by morning people. I am not one of them. To be offered a job with these hours is a gift.
I also live close enough to the new job to walk to work. It’s 13 minutes one way. And the sun is returning, and spring is on the way.
It would be simple enough if I just wore my work shoes to walk to work. I tend to wear comfortable shoes for work, but they’re not really intended for that kind of walking (on the road part of the way), and I can pretty much guarantee that my feet would be hurting after a couple of days of this.
I don’t want to wear my real walking shoes. For one, dress pants are too long to wear flat shoes. In addition, they’re just ugly.
You’d think this would be easier, but I’ve tied myself up in knots over less.
Any ideas?
