    I bought some new work shoes today...25% off

    steel toe steel plate and they have a good toe guard thing for when I have to kneel down so the toe material doesnt get all worn off

    they look like these except the pic ones dont have the toe guard thing

    my advice would be dont be that stupid...ask people for help because once you screw your back your whole life changes for the worse

    also I like these shoes..they conformed to my feet already

    they had another pair my size and I think Ill go buy them for spares (I have big feet ;) )

    In the past I've installed engines in Toyota tercels without a hoist or anything like that...Id lift the engine and place it on the front bumper...then stand on the strut towers and lift then lower it into place with a strap...

    now I can barely do anything without having to stop often due to back pain

    also I'm loving those little hoops on the shoes...makes them 10 times easier to put on
