Unfashionable

[fbhjr]

I’ve been told that I don’t meet the dress code requirements at work. Sad.
Yesterday the head of HR sent out an email saying there is going to be a
big tour Friday, and a dealer conference at the same time, so everyone
needs to dress well.
I didn’t get the email.
So I went over to her office and asked “Am I so fashionable that it’s never
a problem, or so hopeless I should just take Friday off?”
After a brief explanation of what I was talking about, and email
distribution lists, she inspected me to see if I passed muster.

“No, that won’t do,” she said after the inspection.
“Why not, I thought this would be OK?”
“No sneakers,” she said.
So, given my lack of shoe collection, I think it will have to be my ren
faire boots.

Go to Burlington Coat Factory, buy a pair of good Nunn Bush shoes for half-off and you're good to go.

Failing that, you can pay retail at a place like:
Matt Shoes Retail Store
284 Boston Tpke
Shrewsbury, MA 01545

Get a good comfortable pair that you slip into and they'll be better than sneakers.
Something like the Maguire, Mead or Hartley tend to be good comfortable shoes:
