No college degree. Massive gap in my resume (years). FUCKING TRANSGENDER. Fucking beginning of my transition, I look awful, I sound awful, and I have no actual reason for someone to hire me. My CIS friends with NO GAPS, STUDYING are getting turned down for retail jobs. Jobs at car washes. WHAT FUCKING HOPE DO I HAVE?? And I’m moving so I have to quit at my current job. I’ll have good references, my previous employers have all loved me, and I technically have a bit of a nicer position for my resume now but still. I’m fucking cooked. And I desperately need a job bc no SO and I need to move out. Parents are going to be unbearable when I have to come out.
See if you can find a mutual aid org where you’re moving to? They might be able to help financially in the short term, plus helping out and meeting folks might get you a job.
I’ll check, I’m sure there will be something. I hate to take money when I’m capable of working and my family hasn’t kicked me out yet. But I should look into it.
