You'll get used to it pretty soon and then your feet won't hurt at all. -- Posted by EvitaErcton at 8:56 pm on July 9, 2009 a little pain from a hard day's work never hurt anyone (until it did). you'll be a-ok. -- Posted by tearful at 9:06 pm on July 9, 2009 Quote: from Maxie at 8:56 pm on July 9, 2009 It's always like that the first few shifts.
