trans | Work

Got work at 4pm....I really hate work right now because even if I can feel and present as a boy, works a place where I really can't. Even though I do wear a shirt and tie. My uniform doesn't help my figure and even though I have been mistaken by customers for a boy quite a few times, most people refrain to calling me 'love' and anyways all the staff members know me as a girl. Seemingly worse, most of them know me as a lesbien as they know me and my girlfriend (who works on lobby with me) are together.

A note to all FTMs/TGs out there, when you went to a new work place pre-T/anything else realy did you let your employer know about your gender preferences? Because I've applied somewhere else, who are all 'oooh equal oppotunities and shit' but I doubt they'd understand if I tried to tell them. I just want to feel happier in the workplace really :/

Also, who has binded or packed in work? I would love to bind in work, but I've only tried it once and it was okay for a little bit but made me feel ill after a while. (I use bandages/sports bra) I am looking to get a binder for my birthday but I am worried about hurting myself too much and I don't really know where to start.

Thanks
