I’ve had this problem with several jobs, but the good news is, the pain goes away. You aren’t used to standing so much and your body just has to adjust to your new lifestyle, and it will in time.

A GOOD PAIR OF SHOES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BUT JUST FOR TODAY SWITCH WEIGHT LOAD AROUND,ONE FOOT TO OTHER,BOTH.GO TO THE BATHROOM MORE THAN USUAL IF YOU CAN AND TAKE A LOAD OFF THE FEET FOR A COUPLE OF MINUTES.ALSO I LIKE TO TAP MY FOOT WHEN I AM STANDING FOR AWHILE….HELPS WITH PAIN A LITTLE.FOR THE LONG TERM….SHOES ARE VERY IMPORTANT!!!!!! GET A PAIR THAT FITS CORRECTLY, GOOD INSOLES, AND RUBBER OUTER SOLES.YOU PROBABLY NEED TO LOOSE WEIGHT TOO.MAYBE PAYING ATTENTION TO POSTURE AND MUSCLE STRENGTHENING.I AM ALSO HAVING(LOWER )BACK PAIN… IT IS DUE TO WEIGHT GAIN, AND NOT ENOUGH EXERCISE

try not to keep your knees stiff. bend them occasionally. and if possible, stretch occasionally as well. otherwise, you might try looking for a job that is better suited to you physically. best of luck to you. grmmynet

You feet and shoes are important, then if you can stand with one foot elevated like, on a box or rail, try it. It helps relieve the tension of both feet on the floor at the same time.

try a different pair of shoes I recommend trying the brand mtb they are shoes that force you to use good posture. if you decide to get them bring another pair of shoes with you for the first few days as it does take some getting used to. But in the end it is well worth the $$$
