Title: Trans friendly jobs
Post by: Sinclair on July 07, 2017, 09:20:01 PM
As part of my progression I would love to go to work every day as Sinclair -- my true self. Anyone here in central Florida know of trans friendly companies? I'm tired of working with salty rednecks and want to find a safe work place. Any suggestions? I really want to do this. Tired of changing clothes. Help, please!!  :icon_chick:

Usbank? Any other top 100 LGBT-friendly companies? I've seen transpeople working at Walmart, Target and Golden Coral (chain restaurant)

I would add Starbucks and Costco to the list.

Be careful about working at any job with face to face public contact. It only takes one bad customer to ruin your day.

In my opinion the best trans friendly jobs are technical in nature where your are valued for your mental abilities and not your personal appearance. Medical, IT, and any other job that both men and women can work together as equals.

Don't forget owning your own business. You get to call the shots.

I hear Disney is very LGBT friendly. I know you have one in Fl.

It might help to include a little more what you are looking for and maybe a bit closer area.
Companies coming to my mind is NBC Universal (for example Golf Channel is in Florida or one of the Ressorts in Orlando). Very strong LGBT group.
You could also check Booz Allen Hamilton - also with a great LGBT policy.
If you are looking in Boca, I may know some more depending on what you are looking for. Send me a PM about that one if you are interested.
