Anyone know a quick way to fix it. I'm at work and will be here a while!

Duct tape. Or staples. I once fixed a dress with a paperclip! Will that work?

oh that sucks!

I actually thought this was going to be a thread mocking the other "my cat sneezed!" threads.

If my flip-flop broke, I'd see a doctor.

Even my staff does not wear flip flops. You know they used to call that silly footwear - "thongs"?

brd...some of us still do.


my question, why are you wearing those to work in the first place. Do you work at a beach?

My flip has never flopped.

If it is a cheap plastic one like you get at Old Navy, here's what to do:

Pull the snapped end through the hole. Cut off a piece of a straightened paper clip and run it through the plastic lengthwise. It should be enough to keep your flip flop together until you get home. As someone who has had this happen, I promise you that it will work.

Unless you actually have nice flip flops on. Then I don't know what to tell you

Stepped on a pop top?

Thanks Jon! Have you tried duct tape?
