I’ve been working at McDonald’s for almost 9 months now, and any shifts longer than 4 hours, my feet start to hurt.
I am overweight, Last time I checked it was 230lbs. But I have heard of similar complaints from coworkers and people online.
Is it the case of too much of a good thing? (Being active and about)

Weight contributes to making it worse, but from experience, I can tell you the right shoes make a world of difference. Poor shoe quality or shoes not fit for the purpose of all-day standing/walking causes your feet to hurt a lot sooner. A good quality, supportive, cushioning shoe is worth the extra cost, and I don’t mean running shoes which are for running, not all day standing/walking. If you can’t afford new shoes, then look at the various cushioning and arch support inserts available to put into your existing shoes.
