Wear Flat Shoes at work

Unless you are actually planning on having an office romance, who exactly are you trying to impress with uncomfortable shoes that are so high you fall over and look alot stupider than someone in flat shoes?

Where I work, the only people I could pick up are gay or over 45, and incapable of conversation wih fellow human beings.

There’s really no point. Maybe if I had a different job.

I acquired a box to slip neatly under my desk at work and in it is contained my pair of flat shoes. My work colleagues have already clicked on that I’m not so tall as they once thought and the ‘short’ jokes have started to fly :)

I am continuing to feel the strain on my tendon so hopefully after a few dedicated months of ‘wearing flat shoes’ my archilles will stretch back to its normal length.

...literally, was buying a pair of flat suitable shoes for work. Every day of my career life I have always worn high heels without realising the pressure and strain this has put on my achilles tendon. The only way, my masseur said, of releasing the pressure on my muscles was to straighten out my leg by wearing non-heel shoes and stretch out my shortened tendon.

Though I took his advice at the time seriously, I haven’t had a moment to create a plan to put this idea in motion. Yesterday as I was walking through Myer, his words started to ring in my ear and convicted, I went to the shoe department and bought a pair of flat shoes to keep at work.

I have only been wearing the shoes for a few hours but am already feeling the strain of my tendon stretching. Hopefully that’s a good indication!
