Yeah, I'm not gonna lie, I was shaking a bit, both hands and voice. But the moment was simply too priceless to pass up. I would have been kicking myself in the pants for the rest of my life :P

And I'm a property manager, incidentally :)

"Choosing to be true to one's self — despite challenges that may come with the journey — is an integral part of realizing not just one's own potential, but of realizing the true nature of our collective human spirit. This spirit is what makes us who we are, and by following that spirit as it manifests outwardly, and inwardly, you are benefiting us all." -Andrew WK

What a story.

In the end we don't regret what we did but what we did not do.

Keep us updated on how the job progresses.
Happy T Gurl living as Vicky half time.

Great story - that moment was absolutely way too perfect to miss.

It's great that you've found somewhere that is (relatively) accepting too.

I hope that if I come out at work I can find a way as awesome as that.
He says the best way out is always through.
And I agree to that, or in so far
As that I can see no way out but through

To move forward is to leave behind that which has become dear. It is a call into the wild, into becoming someone currently unknown to us. For most, it is a call too frightening and too challenging to heed. For some, it is a call to be more than we were capable of being, both now and in the future.

You are brave. Way to go, I think you did the right thing :)
Trying to take it one day at a time :)

If you don't already then you should be proud of yourself! I REALLY loved reading your coming out at work story and the courage you showed. Thanks you for sharing it with us. :) I do wonder (Maybe you know), because you stared at the person who joked about them having a transgender child, did any of them find that odd or weird or suspect something? (In other words did anyone think you really were transgender?) Hopefully when I finally come out at work it'll go as smoothly as yours did and the people treat me the right way.

That was one of the most awesome coming out stories that I've ever read! Good for you!
