Oh those aching feet.....
Dear Allison, sorry for the delay in responding to your question. Just got back from sunny Florida and the week is sure flying by!
I have just the answer you need. TAKE A VACATION!! There's nothing like a little time off your feet and who can't use a little rest and relaxation - calluses or no calluses? If that's not possible right now, then you do have some other, less fun but certainly effective, options.
To alleviate some of your discomfort, According to www.foot.com, you need to redistribute the weight on your foot - stearing pressure away from your calluses. You can do that by using an orthotic. Probably could start by trying a Dr Scholls gel insert.
Then try some foot scrubs and soaks. Avon has a nice set and it's cinnamon scented - so you're feet will smell all Christmasy! Check it out, it's called FootWorks Cinnamon Treats and it's around $8.00 for the set. Looks like it might help you too.
Your last option is to figure out a way to boss everyone around in your department and pawn all your work off on them so they have to stand all day! Hey....finally a solution I can get behind!!
Good luck!
Andrea
