NO FOOTWEAR - WHAT TO DO ??

[Stormproof]

Go in with flip flops on and tell them you've got no uniform footwear and its down to them to sort it

[Straight4ward]

JCL, Don't let them fob you off with whale grease, IT DOESN'T WORK !!!!

Trench foot is easily prevented by keeping the feet warm and dry, and changing socks frequently when the feet cannot be kept dry. During World War I, trench soldiers were provided with whale grease and told to apply it to their feet, to reduce the prevalence of this condition; the idea was to make the feet waterproof. It was found, however, that this made the condition worse as it made the feet perspire and absorb even more water. Source Wikipedia.

Waited 3 weeks for some boots, so in the end DIM gave me £30 to buy my own, got some hiking boots from go outdoors for £29.99 and give them the receipt.

I've been waiting over 3 months now, every time I ask how long they will be, it's always another month. I refuse to wear my own especially as I won't be covered if I have an accident and it's only a matter of time. I'll just have to walk slower and take even more care.

Worst weather in decades and royal mail run out of boots.... who says the RM management are incompetant? :cfo Or is it just part of thier "cunning plan" to boost profits so they can cream off even more money from the top?

Right, I deal with uniform orders in our do, get the dom to fill in a uniform request and ask for "boots delivery non slip" you will get a pair probably magnums within a week, theses will do between now and when your chosen ones come into stock, I undertand you say you cant get any to fit, get a larger size and wear thicker socks, at least that way you are not wearing unauthorised footwear on del, as remember if you fall with trainers you have no come back, as for this week ask the dom to explain in writing what if wants you to do for this week

Finally got some ice spike things for the bottom of my shoes today, could've done with them earlier but better late than never I guess

Blokes at our place wear magnums - they rang, out of stock and arent getting anymore. All non safety shoes arent available for at least 6 weeks

yeah the saftey ones are, ie steel toe caps are out of stock, but for delivery you need the Nonslip ones hence saying on the order form get the dom to put "boots delivery non slip", they have plenty in stock and as long as you dont specify a particulr type, you always get someting within a week
