I hope you can convince the ones hiring to see sense...And if not find a way to make it work.
Maybe she's mellowed in 15 years???
Well I hope so... it has been a roller coaster ride this last 24 hours...
76 days... 5 days to go!Had a terrible night last night, worrying about the possibility of that woman being hired. I think I've had a mild virus or something too because I've been running a slight temperature although that has hopefully passed. Didn't help with my mood though, felt sick to my stomach.
Lots of work at work today, go in early and just slogged through that and then some back to back meetings. Had lunch with a friend I've known for 30 years. I said to her "I'm trans gender..." and she said "oh, sweetie I've always known!"
That was a pretty good response, eh?
I've now told the two other people at work who didn't know, one of them, an older Chinese lady who I actually thought would be pretty weird about it was actually very excited instead.
Then I had a word with the boss about the psycho woman she's thinking of hiring. Yes, it was on the cards alright. I was pretty blunt but didn't exaggerate. Another colleague who knew about some of this woman's behaviour was there and able to add additional info, some of it quite damaging. Anyway, the boss did seem a bit perturbed and said she'd take it into consideration. Problem is, being a sociopath means this woman is quite the charmer when she wants to be. ugh. We'll see!
Went to visit my shrink - got changed into gal-mode and walked up the road to his office. Had a useful session talked about my feelings around coming out to my folks.
Went back to work and
didn't get changed back into guy-mode. I was going to give them a quick preview and then got stuck in the office for the rest of the afternoon as Grace. No one minded! It was a great, natural & unweird feeling I have to say. Afterwards went to the local pub with a couple of colleagues for a quick drink and chat...one that was totally not about me! yay! Caught the train and walked home, wow am I exhausted!
