So i got a huge packet in the mail today. Not only was there information about my nondisclosure agreement, ITAR policy, and notice that i passed my federal background check and can continue working, there was a handbook. Flip to page 37 of 100 and right in the middle of the page in bold underlined print it reads, "Discrimination on the basis of an individuals race, religion,creed, color, sex, sexual orientation, age, marital status, disability, national origin,, veterans status or GENDER IDENTITY, is grounds for immediate dismissal. Further more if a person wishes to wear clothing traditionally worn by a specific gender, they are to be referred to as that gender, failure to do so can be seen as discrimination and you can and will be terminated and immediately removed from the property"
So regardless of what any Debbie Downer wants to say, i feel safe after reading that but will still be discussing my transition with HR when i am financially able to get the ball rolling again.
