Sandals and crusty feet at work

[Offherrockingchair]

AIBU to think that walking sandals and flip flops are not professional workwear? Yes, it’s been ridiculously hot, but I don’t want to see brittle yellow toenails, crusty dry skin and, in one case, flakes and chunks of skin hanging off the manky trotters of my colleagues 🤮 At the very least, if we are going to be subjected to your toe cleavage, have a pedicure first. And don’t get me started on the smelly ones!

I sometimes wear flip.flops to work, once I wore crocs, theres no dress code. I dont have manky or smelly feet. But generally I dont because I feel like my feet get dirtier when commuting in flip flops, and I cant run for the train if im.late.

Everyone (men and women) wear shorts, the other day i wore a tshirt that when I reached up to a high shelf about 1" of midriff was on show, and no one died.

We can't wear flip flops at work for health and safety reasons, but sandals are fine. I haven't seen any of the men in sandals though.

I drive to work so no issues with dirty public transport.

I’m a solicitor and have had sandals on all week. I do however have pretty feet and a pedicure and they’re smart sandals/wedges…. I don’t mind as long as the feet are tidy and clean

I don't like seeing acne, eczema, cold sores or hairy ears either but unfortunately other people have imperfect bodies and still have the right to be among us. I, on the other hand, am absolutely perfect in every way.

I wear smart sandals to work all the time in summer. I have regular pedicures and my toenails are painted but even if they weren’t I’d still wear them. It’s honestly never once occurred to me that people are looking at my feet and judging me - as long as I’m comfortable I don’t care! And the same for what anyone else on this planet is wearing. If it’s not affecting me I could not care less, I don’t know why people are so weird about it.

I have that @Ilovemum - I didn't know that was what it was called! It's horrible isn't it?

Tbf MN is obsessed with feet and shoes, to a batshit extent.
