Work was actually decent today :) Talked with my boss for a few hours about what all we wants me working on and I’m kinda excited. Also my cube is next to a they/them butch which is very waow. But first day was mostly just the typical boring stuff, watched a lot of videos and played on my phone a bit. He claims there will be a lot of down time the first few months while they get me up to speed which would be hype.
i’m glad it was ok for you! first few months of an office job tends to be free money just getting paid to be bored by onboarding bs basically
wow. happy it seems neato
I know that never happens
yippeee
wonderful!they/them butch
hell yeah! that sounds basically as good as it could be, and a cubicle next to a they them butch has got to be a bit encouraging. get those training videos in, make sure to not stand on a ladder alone or smth

Hey, that sounds pretty good! Hope you get to be friends with your cube neighbour
Happy for you <3
Oooh, that seems nice. So happy for you!
So happy to hear that <3
Yay I’m so happy for you! Sounds like work might actually be a nice change :)
Hell yes, glad it went well for you!
i’ve been noticing men talking over me more often now so I guess that means I’m starting to pass better 🙄
When I first started transitioning I just wanted to be an ordinary woman, but it’s crazy because 2 years in I’m an extraordinary woman.
I’m so hot, a beautiful and striking just shy of 40. I’m so confident and accomplished in my field, I do my job with panache and competence. I make love to my partners with clear two-way communication and a complete absence of shame.
I am a hurricane.
Starting my first real job in like an hour.
I hope it goes as well as possible and it isn’t as bad as you think it will be
awh you got this, cutie
suicidal ideation
Someone kill me please :timmy-pray:
God I fucking hate being here.
Have a virtual hug.
I get that feeling today especially. Everything sucks and makes me cry. I feel lonely, like nobody understands or even gives a fuck and I fear my new job (starts 2.11) where I won’t only be the only trans women but probably the only women at all.
:cuddle:
Yea it’s fucking awful. I’m almost there and can barely hold back tears. Genuinely awful. I’m definitely the only removed in the whole place too. Fuck my entire life.
Update me on how it went, I know you will do well. Wish I could lend you some of my pathetic strength.
Also, if they don’t appreciate you, fuck them. We love you <3
I will, thank you.
It’s far, far from just being the job bothering me. Glad you all like me.
we like you a lot. good luck with the job!
Watching precure in my bed dressed in a lolita dress and eating chocolate with rosehip tea, this is what girlhood was always meant to be
Definitely a good hrtversary~ 🎀
My dad so bothered by my long hair he (jokingly ig) asked HR to make me cut my hair and has told this story to everyone who will listen
overly complicated repo needed maps to be navigated
no one knows where anything is
documentation slop
In next meeting guy readily admits that he built everything using AI
The AI use is so obvious and egregious that we have to put an AI use statement. I swear if I fail this course cause of it I’ll be so pissed cause I didn’t even ship AI generated code!
And of course we don’t have the time left to de-AI-fy everything
I wonder why these mfs are even bothering to study master’s CS if they are just gonna slop their way through it all.
Good morning!
I think I posted it, but I feel very much like this pic post bottom surgery lol

“This girl drawing is so good I wonde-” turns out to be the malfoy harry potter crap
have noticed that i need more sleep now, used to be fine with just 7h, but i need 9h or 10h now
I can’t sleep through the night for shit anymore. Waking up like 3 times until I get up too early because I am annoyed af. The girls hurting and me being prone to sleep on my stomach does probably not help 😭
eepy princess gang
yeah
