Feet to fit the job

I don't always proclaim my love for the job, and for the past 1 and half year, it has been a rare occurence. Monday, however was an exception, and whilst I'm not bursting to the seams with love for the career climbing, I was ready to jump through more hoops just to get to do it all over again.

Shoe buying is an experience to behold. So many shoes, so little time. I walked into the showroom greeted by half a room covered with shoes of all shapes and colours, laid neatly in rows, organised according to their monthly capsules. It might not be the most exciting brand out there for the under 25s, it's still a highlight in my career thus far. Being in that position of seeing, feeling and selecting the merchandise 6 months prior to its actual launch date is a privilege that I'd like to have all the time.

I don't always like my ugly toenails, but having sample size feet is a blessing in disguise. So I can't complain. It's like that moment in Grey's where Meredith walked out from the OR after her first surgery - it's just such a natural high. It's moments like these that makes everything worthwhile. >The cliches of a buying career is literally a cliche of sorts, and oh so much joy! <-----cue me in my most exaggerated enthusiastic voice. Sadly, in my haste, I did not snap any pictures of the whole setup.

Now, I might want to start thinking of painting my toenails if I'm going to start flaunting them in public.....hmmm.
