Am I the only one who does this?

So basically I hate wearing shoes (of any kind). If I don't have to wear them, they aren't going on. So when I sit down at my desk, my shoes come off and stay off until I have to get up and go somewhere. Does anyone else do this? Also, get loafers if you want to start doing this. Much less of a pain in the ass.

I do the exact same thing. I don't even retie them when I get up from my desk unless I know I'm going to a meeting or something

The answer to your question is 1) network 2) get involved 3) beef up your resume 4) repeat -happypantsmcgee WSO is not your personal search function.
 

Guilty.
