Shoes, Shoes, Shoes.: Something about the way your foot is responding to the physical act of working is causing some nerve irritation. It more than likely involve the style or fit of the shoes you are wearing. The shoe, compounded with the increased standing, is causing a digital or proper nerve to be compromised and thus you are having paresthesia. Re-think the shoes before you do anything else.
