Day 3 at Walmart on my last 15 minute break. Two more hours of work after this.

Has anyone else done retail, does it get easier? I'm in pain every moment that I'm working

I stand like...most of the day. I don't sit much. It used to be because the moment I sit down, all the pain would rush to my feet.

Nowadays, I honestly feel no pain after work, regardless of the hours. I work at a Pizza Hut, granted, but half my day is spent going from one end of the store to the other. The pain goes away, just takes time(AND COMFY SHOES!). Try some gel inserts, I hear those are great.

It gets easier, but then it comes creeping back.
For me, it's my fingertips mostly. I don't even notice how bad it is until I take a week vacation and then come back.

Takes a few weeks to get used to being on your feet so much. It's your back you really have to watch out for.

Decent shoes and inserts as needed can help, but really, it's just a matter of toughing it out until your feet adjust.

Working a job where I had to be on my feet all day aggravated an old injury and led to permanent damage.

If you count dying inside as getting easier, then yes, Walmart "gets easier".
