Today, in an effort to look more professional at work, I wore high heels. My boss decided today would be a great day for me to walk around on the sidewalk holding a sign to advertise instead of doing the job I was hired for. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I wore my new shoes to work, feeling confident. Halfway through the day, I found out that I'd forgotten to remove a giant price sticker on the left sole. My boss pointed it out during a meeting, as I crossed my legs. FML
Today, I wore a new pair of heels to an interview. Halfway through, as they were showing me around the production floor, one of my heels snapped. I was forced to finish the interview wobbling on one heel like a drunk flamingo. I wasn’t offered the job, but they did say, “You have great balance.” FML
Today, I sprained my ankle trying to prove that I can walk in high heels. FML
Today, my boss walked in my office to see me busy making a little Post-it dress for my pen. FML
Today, I wore a new pair of shoes to work. By lunchtime, my feet were covered in blisters and I had to limp my way through the rest of the day. FML
Today, at the office, after a heavy night of drinking, I had to hear my boss walk around with bells attached to her shoes. She circled the office a total of 34 times today. FML
Today, I wore new shoes to work, which turned out to be the loudest shoes on the planet when walking on the office lino. Every step echoed like a cartoon villain entering a room. My coworker asked if I needed some WD-40. I still had six hours left to walk around. FML
Today, I came to work ready to impress my boss. A couple of weeks ago I asked him for a promotion from stock to sales and I have been proving myself worthy. Turns out he hired a new girl for sales, with great, big, fake breasts. FML
Today, I slipped at work while putting out a "wet floor" sign to make sure the customers didn't slip. FML
Today, I walked into my boss's office to ask for a raise, and walked out unemployed. FML

Whatever job is advertised by a sidewalk sign is probably not worth the high heels

How are heelbreakers professional?

Anyone who tells you you have to wear heels to look professional can bugger off. Feeling confident in what you're wearing makes a pair of flats professional,(so long as they aren't flip flops). If it is a male who is saying that your flat work shoes don't seem professional enough and you should be wearing heels, then just ask him why doesn't he do it instead. If heels are so fantastic he should try wearing them all day.

This needs a follow up. what job would make you more professional to wear heels, but make you walk outside advertising that your work is hiring?
