People are so neurotic

Feet stink. I don’t want stinky barefooted people in my home

Also, back to the OP’s original question. Why don’t you take your shoes off in the office?

Good for you for tracking all that poo pee and vomit in peoples homes

Some of you people are so neurotic. I’m really stepping in poo pee and vomit as I step outside my 3.5M home into my range rover in my Jimmy Choos and then out of the car and a few steps into the suburban home of my friends?????
Ok. If you say so.

I'm from Minnesota and in the winter at parties there is always a huge pile of snowy boots by the door and everyone is in socks.

Yeah, because they are snow boots, covered in snow, ice and mud. You don't want to track that all over the friend's carpeting. They are also bulky and sometimes uncomfortable. There are boot trays made specifically designed to let boots dry off. We kept ours either outside the front door or immediately inside. that is normal. asking people to remove their shoes at a party is just weird. Remember Carey Bradshaw's Manolos were stolen at a party just like this?

What happens in the summer? What little there is of it, apparently.

Summer is more of a mix, but growing up I remember taking my shoes off in most homes.
