I feel on top of the world today.
So far in my transition I have been knocking down every difficult task on my list of things to do. I've been happy but there has been one hang up. I've been unemployed since the very day I started full-time. I've made friends, become closer with family, gotten my name changed, gotten enough laser to be able to hide my facial hair, I have a closet full of clothes and shoes, passed well enough that I shock people in trans bars and gay clubs when I tell people I'm trans, rented a house in a brand new city... you name it I've pretty much knocked them down... except for going out as a female and getting a job.
Well today I'm now employed. 7.5 months into transition, and on the very week my unemployment ran out, my interviewer called me up and told me the great news, "Your resume was impressive and you interviewed very well, and we would like to offer you the position!" Proof that if it was meant to be, things will fall into place when you need them to. I'm now a gainfully employed female!!! Yay!!!
And as if that's not great enough news, I'll be working in a call center. Apparently my voice passes well enough to talk to people all day long under a female name
I'd love to go out and celebrate but... crap I have to work tomorrow
