Kate Lynn Blatt, of Pottsville, worked at Cabela's Retail Store Inc. from September 2006 until March 2007 as a seasonal stocker. She earned about $400 weekly, she said.
The store, located in Hamburg, is part of a chain that specializes in outdoor hunting and fishing equipment.
At the time she was hired, Blatt was in the process of transitioning from James to Kate Lynn.
