Sorry I don't have a remedy---I just wanted to say that I completely understand how you feel!! I'm a manager at a department store, and I've been putting miles and miles on these feet running around the store for 9+ hours per day.

I try to fit in my workouts before work. If I worked the day/night before, I'll focus on upper body, lower body floor work, or abs. If I was off the day before, my feet are more rested and can handle cardio or standing leg work.

Of course shoes can make a world of difference. When I was wearing dressy sandles during the summer, there were days that I would literally wear off a layer of skin on the bottoms of my feet!

Happy Holidays!

I am on my feet 8 to 11 hours a day.....I used to have constant feet pain with any shoe I bought until I changed to Dansko professional (clogs) shoes. Now all my working shoes are Dansko. I have a full wardrobe of colors. They are not the most beautiful or the least expensive, but I will choose them over a pair of sneakers for comfort any day of the week. They are fully recommended by podiatrists.

Hey! I second the Dansko clog. My feet and my knees love them. I was managing a bagel shop, standing 10-12 hrs a day and when I finally got home at night(before I started wearing them)I literally could not get back out of the chair....the pain was awful. Bought a pair, and yeah, they are expensive, but I think they are cute, and now I could probably stand all day and still feel great. Do a google...some online sites have some great deals....I have never paid full price for mine. Once you know your size you can get some great deals on ebay as well.
