I got a job at Burger King. And they let me wear Matt on my name tag, no questions asked. They all call me Matt and he. The only ones who know I'm trans is the managers who need to know to give me my check. They treat me like a regular guy, even the ones who know, and its awesome, definitely a change from Arby's. So WOOHOO *dances*
The only thing I"m worriee about is that one of my coworkers knows I'm trans, and I don't know if she'll tell other people. I don't know how anybody else would react if they found out. So far I'm pretty sure they all think I'm bio male. They don't check which restroom I use though...and I don't think they care as much as Arby's did either.

One more thing, my voice seems to have dropped an octave from consciously talking deeper, I'm not on hormones. And my facial hair is growing faster lately. And..yeah...

At my work the word spreads about everything, so if one person speculates and starts the rumor, it will probably get around. Just remember you don't have to prove them anything, and your manager is probably smart enough not to disclose that information to any of the workers. I wouldn't worry too much if I were you. Just keep on being your awesome self!

Yeah, I just wonder if any of them guessed already. The only thing giving me away is my ass and no adam's apple...
Meh, I don't know.

That's really cool. Of course, you should use the guy's room, and never feel it's necessary to explain anything to anyone about your gender. Management takes you as male....you are male. BTW.....I'm mtf, but never had an adams apple. Did I miss something??
Luck,

Well, I've noticed I'm developing an adam's apple. And a few guys I work with don't have one. But it makes me more confident that I pass with one. The other guy I worked with today definitely has no clue. We were fooling around and he's gay and asked me if I was gay and I was like no, heh.
