Are you team shoes or no shoes in the house? How do you politely let guests know not to walk around with shoes in your house?

No shoes, please. Keep a couple of pairs by the door, hopefully they get the hint. Or have house shoes?

Shoes fine in the entrance/kitchen/living room since it’s hardwood.

No shoes. My mom doesn’t ask people to take them off even though we have antique carpets because she’s too kind. I definitely ask people. I think I am going to start keep shoe covers in the house for westerners and workers at the house. Most people are ok to take off their shoes. What gets my blood boiling is when other Muslims don’t take their shoes off at my house when they are familiar with the culture

Thanks everyone. For context, there was an incident at a housewarming party. 80% of people took their shoes off before entering the gathering but the remaining individuals wanted to keep their high heels/sandals on. One lady accidentally stepped on a toddler’s hand. 😢 It was clearly an accident but it could’ve been avoided. Aside from that, people can bring anything into the house by way of their footwear.

Although Amazon has instituted a hiring freeze and layoffs are probably on their way, I went through the loop for a security engineer position at AWS. Before I attended the final interviews, Amazon placed the hiring freeze and called me to ask if I wanted to go ahead or cancel my application. I decided do go ahead Right now I'm waiting for their response and the position I applied to changed from "under consideration" to "no longer under consideration". Thoughts?
