If you can’t be a good example…

…be a horrible warning.

I have big feet.  Long and fairly narrow for a person of my, erm, stature.  I take a size 10 in most shoes, 11 if it’s a small make.  In Crocs, I take a 10.  I checked before I ordered the black MJ’s to be sure I ordered the same size, and still the black ones are a little snug.  Despite having a big “10” stamped on the bottom.  But I have worn them all day today without pain, and I am sure they will be ok once they are worn in.

I just got back to the office to find a delivery on my desk – the Primas had arrived already!  I tried them on straight away, and was horrified to find that they are way too small.  Like pinched toes, almost can’t squeeze my feet in small.

I would have thought that it is a reasonable assumption to make that within a brand of shoes, sizing would be consistent across the different ranges?

Apparently not.  Order online at your peril.

Well, peril might be too strong a word, because they promise to get a new pair out to me asap, but I probably won’t have them for my NZ trip 😦

So, on to work news.  I got business cards yesterday (they still don’t have my official* title on them, but I am working on it), and today I delivered an expensive bit of medical kit that I sold all on my lonesome.  I also gave some user training, which is damn impressive considering that I thought my synapses were going to melt and leak out through my ears while I was trying to learn about this system.



*My “official” title is Queen of the G+dd@m^ Mother Fscking Universe.  But you can call me Lara.

One thought on “If you can’t be a good example…”

  1. I just got Primas tonight at David Jones! I too noticed that they run a bit small, and I had a get a bigger size than I take in the normal Crocs.
