    First time you get atheletes foot or a MRSA infection from a poorly cleaned Petro shower, you will no longer be trying to ridicule people you dont even know. I've had both. The MRSA infection could have killed me. Laugh away. I wear shoes in the showers now.

    That is true. But did we ever hear of MRSA and other resistant diseases like we have now back in the 70's. No, we didn't. But they are here now. This is a different world than the 70's. Gotta do what ya gotta do.

    It's been said that 9 out of 10 truck drivers "relieve " themselves in the truck stop shower...
    Do you know what the other one does?

    If not you may be one of the nine.

    Just find an old mud flap(plenty on the side of the road) cut it to fit your big feet, find a bungee strap, your good to go!
    And if you use a Loves or TA flap, you might get a free shower!!
    Winning!!

    Just find the biggest grossest guy shoveling roller dogs into his word hole and ask him how long he gets out of a pair of flip flops. Multiply that number by 13 since you are a normal human being and that's how long you would get out of them. If that number works for you then ask where he got them.

    My shower sandals are going to be 42 years old this November. They haven’t let me down yet.

    Have you gone to a specialist? I think a general physician is not enough.

    Yea shut the heat off in the shop while you're gone, you're a genius, you know what happens when water pipes freeze? How long does it take 3 thousand pounds of tool boxes and tools, 2 60s steel body cars, and about an acre of interior sheet metal to warm up from -10? Oh I forgot the cement floor, it stays about 60 right now, how long do you think it takes to warm that back up?
    Yes I do have a little bit of trouble with balance on a wet shower floor, happens after a few concussions, I don't see flip flops helping that any.

    Howabout Japanese Geta, they're a conversation starter that'll keep you elevated away from the MRSA and drain babies.
