Shoes for work...

My back always hurts so bad at work and after work! I don't know what kind of shoes I should wear as a nurse. When I go to show stores, I see shoes for sale in categories like "walking", "running", so on and so on. What are the best shoes for work?

You can wear shoes for two months to see if they work for you. That way you can test out different brands. For instance, I used to hate Danskos for non-work, but now I love them for being on the floor. WAY better than any other brand I tried (mostly tenners, which made my back scream). I got a cheapie pair of their whites for school and I'm going to buy some black ones when I get a job. Could not do a shift without them. They have lots of brands and styles to check out. You get a total of 5 months before your trial is up, so you can try a lot of types in that time.
