OP- I wore them in London averaging 20k/day recently. Now I wear them for commuting average 8k steps/day. I’m impressed with how they don’t rub or cause back pain or foot pain. They have a 30 day return policy even if you wear them outside. The best shoes I have found are honestly Danskos. But they can be ugly and unstylish. Some sandals are okay.

Oxfords!

A2 I was looking at Allbirds too! My only concern is them getting worn down or stretched out, I will be walking a mile or so to/from work

Nice, do you have the slip ons or runners?

Allbirds. Love Rothys, but I've had to break them in.

I have both runners and tree skippers. Tree skippers are great for summer. Also had trouble with Tieks. Loved them but gave me back pain from the lack of support.

I’m pretty torn on whether I want to take an offer for an internal role or not…
The job itself sounds pretty interesting. Lots of opportunity for growth (eventually will build out a team).

My only concern is the hiring manager. I talked to someone in my network who has worked with him in the past and she told me that she would 100% work with him again bc she learned a lot, but that he has a very dominant personality and that some ppl can butt heads with him.

A director in another unit wants to meet me to “continue a conversation we started last year”. He is referring to the time I had asked him if there were openings on his team. That was over a year ago. I am not too happy where I am right now ( I stayed where I was). I also don’t know if he really has an opportunity or if this is just some corporate circle jerk where my current director is trying to “smoke me out”. I don’t speak poorly of my team/work. How would you approach this conversation?
