Had this happen at work today and my colleagues looked at me like I was a madman for tying both shoes again, instead of just the one that got loose. But doing both shoes again just makes more sense, because you ensure both shoes are equally tight again.

Am I just weird for doing this?

    I’m a Chef and I used to do that as well. Up untill a managed to splash boiling water right into one of my shoes and because of the double knot couldn’t get them off… Had a nice bracelet of blisters for weeks after that

      Would a waterproof boot work better?

      I’ve worked in similar jobs where you’re on your feet all day, so I understand focusing on comfort, though.

        I don’t think you got what I was trying to say. I was wearing water proof boots, but those don’t do shit when you throw the water right into that waterproof boot. If anything, they just help to keep water in. My problem was not being able to get the damn thing off
