    I work retail and, of course last night was Black Friday. So we got through it :slight_smile: and my best friend and I went out to breakfast with a few other coworkers to celebrate surviving the night. So, we all met up, the two of us and three others that I'm fairly tight with as far as work friends go. We had a really nice breakfast and once we finished there was a little quiet time.

    I was like, "A lull in the conversation, I know how to fill that..." My best friend looked a little surprised because she knew what was coming at that point. Afterward I told them I'd been seeing a therapist for almost two months, that I'm transgender, and that I intend to transition. I told them this would be coming out at work at some point but they represented my closest friends there and I wanted them to know first.

    It went well. They all said they were fine with it. One admitted that a few years ago he might have had a problem with it, but his views have changed. All in all it went well.

    Thus begins my coming out at work I suppose :slight_smile:

    That's fantastic! Good luck with your transition! Don't let the hormones make you crazy!
