So I am most likely going to start working as a bagger at a grocery store soon. The uniform is khaki pants and white button down, tie optional. I'm in search of shoes that are both comfortable for standing in for long periods of time but also not really shitty looking.
Would something like boat shoes be comfortable for that long?

The biggest trick to any job where standing for 8+ hours is involved, is to just learn to shift your weight from leg to leg as you go, if you have any kind of polish-ready work shoe, you should be fine in terms of comfort. I would say that if looks are your concern, find a pair that fit you well with an insole, if you are finding it hard to stand for prolonged periods of time.

This is why I carry a small, less expensive version of a Moleskine! Same size, but a bit thicker (more pages!), and about 1/2 the price. Also, rebinding old moleskines is a good trick, too.

How is rebinding the pages of a notebook you already filled up helpful in saving you money on blank pages?

I'd never go into a job interview with a skirt/dress hem hitting so high above the knee. It's a lovely dress, but it's just not appropriate for a job interview, imho.
Also, moleskines! Why are moleskines so popular! I refuse to buy a journal that is so precious and fragile. I had one a few years ago and it disintegrated from a little quotidian writing, (like two week's worth) and it just made me feel like I had big dirty monster hands or something. Journals should be sturdy! Frankly nothing beats a regular composition book for me.
