Today at breakfast the manager wirking the front ma'am'd me like 7 times in a row, offered to bring my food to my table ect ect. Pretty reassuring considering I am currently without make up and feel the older Ive gotten the more male flags my features send out.
Todays going to be a good day. [emoji4]

Yay! Ya gotta love it!!
I still worry about when I don't have makeup on, it is especially nice for nobody to notice anything then, isn't it?
Have a great week, girl, you are on a roll now!

It was pretty funny. He was this short old man that looked like super mario! :3
'Ma'am, would you like to take a seat and I'll being your food to tour table?'
'Ma'am I need the slip if your order number.'
'Here you are ma'am.'
'Ma'am would you like a straw for your orange juice?'
'Here you are 'ma'am!'
'Enjoy your breakfast ma'am!'
'May I clear your table for you ma'am?'
'Have a nice day ma'am!'

Yay for Super Mario, and the joy that comes from binary interactions. I know the binary doesn't sit well with a lot of people, trans or cis, straight or otherwise, but there is something so reassuring about it for me, I would feel less welcome in this world without it...

'Creature' being one of my (not so endearing) nicknames on site. Construction boys are so kind and enlightened. =/
(Still, one of the more polite names I'm called.) Still, I own it. its written on my hardhat in bold letters. A simple name can't do any damage.

Well, a 'simple name' can erode the old self-esteem over time.
But affirmation from a stranger reading you as female is grand! Great feeling, huh?

I wanted to leave feedback on their website, specific to that store explaining to them how important it was for this kind old man to do what he did, even if he didn't realize how positive an impact that has on someone like me. I chickened out because it asks for your postal code and address.. Y.Y
