This is ny 5th 8 hour shift in a row and my last. I don't know how I'm gonna get through today as my feet already hurt and my shift doesn't start for another half hour...

Are you standing in one place or moving ? I work 10 hour shift's 4pm to 1am and stay on my feet along with heavy lifting besides my 1 hour break which i walk home. I have trouble's standing in one place as i have a bad back so if it's that i'd suggest moving a few step's and coming back every 30 minutes-1 hour

i don't understand how you can't get a seat if you're a cashier,there's no reason to be standing.

Can't you just ask for a chair ?

Go to walmart and buy the $40.00 plus Gel soles for your shoes. I work in a factory 48 hours a week. There is no sitting.. These soles save your life !

40 hours?
You're working full time, get used to it.
Get more comfortable shoes and deal with the pain for a few weeks. Your body will get used to it and you'll get over it.
