How Forward Staffers Tie Their Shoes
It’s a dog-eat-dog world. Jobs are disappearing left and right, and everyone has to scrap for those few that remain. Every advantage counts, no matter how microscopic.
This new, gladiatorial job market is forcing us to reevaluate every last skill we’ve ever learned. Growing up, we’re all taught some way of brushing our teeth, tying our tie, knotting our laces, washing our hands, and it all seems good enough. But what about when good enough is no longer good enough? Is it really the ideal way?
Well now, with all that newfound free time on your hands, you can turn to the Ian’s Laces Web site to find out for certain. At least where shoelaces are concerned. This site can help solve all of your lacing questions, even if you didn’t know you had them, and find the pefect lacing pattern and knot for every situation.
This is the current favorite among Forward staffers. And we favor blue and yellow, or blue and white, laces.
I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning journalism this Passover.
In this age of misinformation, our work is needed like never before. We report on the news that matters most to American Jews, driven by truth, not ideology.
At a time when newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall. That means for the first time in our 126-year history, Forward journalism is free to everyone, everywhere. With an ongoing war, rising antisemitism, and a flood of disinformation that may affect the upcoming election, we believe that free and open access to Jewish journalism is imperative.
Readers like you make it all possible. Right now, we’re in the middle of our Passover Pledge Drive and we still need 300 people to step up and make a gift to sustain our trustworthy, independent journalism.
Make a gift of any size and become a Forward member today. You’ll support our mission to tell the American Jewish story fully and fairly.
— Rachel Fishman Feddersen, Publisher and CEO
