Why is standing on a hard surface over a long period of time harder on the body than standing on something soft. Does having more cushioned shoes compound the effect? Conversely, would hard shoes negate the effect on a soft surface? How much does foot anatomy affect this?

I worked in a warehouse as a packer once, standing by a bench packing boxes all day. I never had a problem, but some of the guys I worked with were constantly griping about having to stand on concrete, and their feet getting cold. They would stand on like 3 layers of cardboard to cushion their feet. Thought it might be something to do with circulation?
