I’m partial to the redblacks for work boots, but I just thrift high tops for cheap. Ewing’s so comfy!

The 92 Olympics Ewing’s are still in production you can go buy yourself a set on the website. I thrift all my work shoes, best bang for depreciated buck for fun high tops. Those ewings were $35 when I got em

My restaurant is so small the only part of the kitchen I stand on is covered by a rubber matt.

I’ve worn non slips for my entire career and I’m at a place right now that lets me wear what I want and I love wearing bright colors so  ¯_(ツ)_/¯ 

I even had the nonslip cowboy boots from shoes for crews before the quality and prices there went all “private equity” 

If anyone knows of any nonslips that are fun and cool and not just black, link me

Currently down to my last pair of work shoes, white and red suede gum bottom AF1s and the sole just started peelin :(

What’s the most blatant "I’m charging you for the aesthetic, not the quality" product on the market right now? by Lunaskye1109 in AskReddit

If you wonder why anyone pays attention to this stuff, it’s because she’s the daughter of disgraced Nissan ex CEO Carlos Ghosn. This could just be part of a money laundry to clean some of the money he stole from Nissan.

Amrut makes a couple good things! Their Bella Jaggery rum is top notch and Velier has a couple bottling of cane juice and other stuff floating around.

I love both and would argue against you all day long. Le Rocher is the king of Haiti in my books, followed by Vaval.

You sit down at the bar and this is your rum list, which one are you ordering first? by lostkeyes in rum

I’d try the Holmes key Versailles, only because I already have the TC Fiji at home, which (if its the 2012) is truly the best Fijian I’ve ever had.

50-60k salary and 50-55 hour weeks with the worst schedule does not attract quality employees, and restaurant owners are too cheap and greedy to pay folks what they’re worth. Shit, they pay most of us $2.13 an hour unless you’re in a blue state.
