    So, I work at Chapters, its like the canadian equivalent of Barnes & Noble. Anyway, I found out today that a guy I work with is gay. I kind of assumed, but my gaydar is so bad i didnt dare ask. On top of that, theres also two more gay guys at my store, a manager and a friend of mine.

    I find it kind of odd/funny that one store managed to have 4 in one go. I dunno, maybe its funny cause im really tired :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    To make this thread have some point, is there anyone you know at your job who is "out" that you know of?

    I'm fifteen and don't have a job so this doesn't really apply to me, but I just wanna say that Chapters is awesome and you make the world a better place by working there. For serious.

    There is one guy that others have told me is gay. However until he tells me himself I just consider it rumor.

    I worked at a place with an openly gay guy. He is married, lives in Massachusetts. I thought of coming out to him at some point. But I know I could not trust him to keep a secret.

    Unfortunately, pretty much anywhere I've ever worked I've been the only queer person. Same thing in college this year - I'm the only non-straight person in my class.

    So what you are saying is that you are the only gay in the village.
