Soak your shirts in OxiClean overnight. Tumble dry on low just long enough to shake out the wrinkles then hang to dry. This solved the problem for me. Plus I quit using commercial deodorant and switched to isopropyl alcohol in a spray bottle- cheap and effective.

I have a set of Keen boots I've used for two years here on the farm - wet, mud, and the occasional cow stepping on my foot. Been pleased with them so far. I do have a set of Redwings but I find them to be heavy and stiff.

My son has a pair of Filsons he really likes but if you think Redwings are expensive . . .

My two tales of dealing with HR:

1. Black dude who was both a co-worker and a friend was being shit on by management. He complained to HR and I went in to back him up. This was supposed to be anonymous. Result? HR passed our complaint to management and they made life miserable for both of us until we quit. Fuck you, Beverly.
2. When I left a job I had been at for 6 years I had some money coming from untaken vacation and other payouts. When I got the check it was $2k short. I complained and complained and even made a trip back to that town to meet with the HR person who handled payroll. Result? Nothing, nada. Never got that money. Fuck you, Elizabeth.

Moral of the story - HR is either actively evil or totally incompetent.
