I work in a warehouse that is 80+ degrees at all times for 12 hours a shift, and the worst drawback is not my feet hurting... it's the fucking chafing between my legs.

Just wait few weeks and your legs get used to it and wont hurt anymore.

dr shoulls shoe inserts work wonders, hit up walmart sometime

Recently got a nice warehouse and yard job as a forklift operator. That's the easy part, the driving. Hard part is remembering where stuff is and communicating with the gate security where to send cars to pick up merchandise.

Also get to sit at the gate and let cars in and out, which is enjoyable with good weather. You only get to sit there though, no reading or anything.

I sorta work in a warehouse but not for the warehouse department of my company.
I load stuff into a machine every half hour or so and literally sit down for the rest of the time, I'm the only person in the building and other than a security camera nobody knows what I'm doing. I usually sleep, read, or play my 3ds all day.

I work with supply chain projects mgmnt

It's more white-collar work but I visit a lot warehouses

Definitely dont walk in work boots (unless ur at work) leave them at work and just wear some shitty runners to walk work or something

Make sure you've spent about $150 on work boots
Wear good thick socks.

But really if ur not driving a forklift or anything in those whole 8 hours straight that's pretty fucken rough

idk how long you have done it for but it will get easier

I drive forklifts 40-50 hours a week. It's the comfiest job ever. I only make $13 an hour though, and I only see 66% of that on my paychecks, so I really only make like $9 an hour.

Should I kill myself?

You need to get really good quality boots. Try several pairs on til you find one that feels like youre walking on air. Leave their original insoles in, then buy some more insoles and put those on top.
You cant cheap out on your footwear, you just cant. My boots cost $150, worth every cent. Have lasted a year so far.

Like every other anon said, your feet will eventually adapt. Just keep at it. I never get blisters any more.

I do inventory and shit in a warehouse. Not too bad. The pay is shit but it's an easy job.

>>39171492
No, you should kill other people with your forklift. All the cool drivers do it.

Hopefully this is the case, wouldn't mind finding something to make that process more comfortable though

These could work. I think I'll try some thick work socks first, but if they don't help I'll take a look at inserts.

It's mostly a picker job but it also involves opening and unpacking boxes if there's not enough items out as well as packing items into and sealing boxes. It's not constant walking but you are constantly on your feet.

I only wear boots at work though, commute is done in comfy trainers.

I don't know if buying new boots is really worth it. It's only a 5 week temp job (at min wage) so the cost would be a reasonable chunk of my earnings. I'll try thicker socks / inserts first, I'm sure the company provided boots aren't the best but I have no idea if that's the cause of my sore feet or just that I haven't adapted to walking for so long yet.

Sounds very comfy anons

It's not that. I just sweat a lot.

>tfw worked in factory when 19
>tfw now 24
>tfw just started maintenance job

it feels so empty. i don't feel like i do anything. I don't miss working on the assembly line but I don't feel like I'm accomplishing anything

>I don't feel like I'm accomplishing anything
That's the curse of the wageslave. Nothing we do matters.

>>39172787
I never felt that way when I was on the assembly line. When I would see certain cars it made me feel good knowing I had a hand in it.

Now, I still have a hand in it, but I'm not the one putting the bad boy together, I'm repairing the equipment that allows people to put it together

if you wear steel toe capped boots or something get some liners to make them comfy senpai

Worked in a Clipper warehouse for a year and half. Fucking horrible if you're just picking items and restocking (team leaders going on patrols and nagging you for picking only 170 and not 178 items up last hour and such), but it was okay once i got a stock control job and was able to sit on my ass in front of a pc all day long.

Now, i moved back to my shithole of a country and got a job at a DHL x-dock, shit is fucking comfy. Nightshifts from 00:00 to 8:00. Loading up vans with cigarettes (only product we deal with) takes no more than 4 hours, usually closer to 2-3, when i'm done i go for a 2 or 3 hour nap (so i'm literally getting paid for sleeping), get up at 5:30, grab some coffe, take care of van drivers' paperwork and go home around 6:40 (6:20 if they have a pre-work meeting) and still get paid for 8 hours.
