Got an odd problem I would like advice on. One of our guys kept slipping on the slope next to a drainage ditch which is mowed by push mower. As a solution I gave him football cleats to wear and there's been no more accidents. It probably looks silly to the tenants, and he's embarrassed to wear them so I gave them a spray of brown paint to look like boots. Regular boots didn't seem to do the trick and although I don't mind wearing cleats it seems to be difficult to convince anyone else to even though the alternative is to fall in waist deep, alligator infested water. Does anyone have an alternative shoe that works as well? In my experience another benefit of football cleats is that they are not as hot as boots and less likely to get rocks inside. Perhaps a hiking boots is a solution?
