We can't even do military anymore. How does one make a living as a trans girl in this day and age?

No one has options I can think of? :(

>>40467995 (OP)
i hear nursing or trucking are good options but i dont really know either this is also something im worried about

>>40467995 (OP)
become someones pet

>>40467995 (OP)
depends heavily on where u live but i've heard being an electrician is a decent option if ur in a major city

>>40467995 (OP)
even the CS people are struggling turns out most commercial programming jobs are easy enough for pajeets to do it and COVID solved the remote working annoyances with it

>>40467995 (OP)
what about IT more generally? programming isn't my thing either but i'm in-house IT at a small company and i'm pretty good at what i do, no degree or technical training at all. it can get a bit tiring on the days when you're doing nothing else but fixing technically illiterate people's mistakes but otherwise it's not so bad, when i'm not dealing with (usually easy) tickets i'm typically working with hardware, i only have to write a few lines of code every now and again and i just get AI to help me. i think it's good for tranners who say pass or mostly pass but struggle a bit socially, as most of the time you work on your own in IT so people don't really mind if you're kinda separate from the company culture as long as you have bare minimum people skills and aren't a total unwashed goblin.

Hi... I run a factory, it was my grandfather's.

>>40468390
Is it possible to get this job if your exp is only wagie jobs?

>>40468390
>IT
boomer or not in US?

>>40467995 (OP)
apparently the trades can be an alright place to work, decent pay, less start up cost than anything with a degree. most of them involve some amount of manual labour so if you aren’t strong enough and don’t want to try to build any muscle then obviously look elsewhere

>>40467995 (OP)
apply for your countries version of disability and then bedrot all day

>>40468991
But what if I don't have a disability?

>>40469022
>But what if I don't have a disability?
you're a tranny, that's borderline impossible to be mentally sane
but I guess exceptions always exist.
in that case you're fucked, accept you'll need to wageslave or upskill

>>40469072
Who knows I've never been diagnosed with anything. I like animating things but finding a job seems like it won't happen :<

>>40469072
Most trans people who get disability are just liars leeching of the taxation of the working class. 99% of them are perfectly capable of working

>>40468390
IT is truly the strat for washed tech trannies
>>40468799
No, once the tech bubble bursted everyone who was cut moved into it and it's become a competitive job with bachelor's requirements in many places (at least this is the amerimutt situation). In any case you'll have to work for it if you want it and Don't wanna get stuck at helpdesk.

>>40467995 (OP)
I'm a psychotherapist, make good money. Not rich but pretty comfy. I did various wagie stuff while I was in school, some of it wasn't bad.

I don't see what being a tranny has to do with it unless you're completely unable to socially function. I've seen even non-passing trans women do all kinds of work.

>>40470949
Idk I'm just an animation tranny trying to find a job to keep me alive until I get a career job. I assume getting a job will be harder for me because I don't have the benefit of experience or having a job pre transition and of course people being much crueler to us now

>>40471157
My strategy (it was a LONG time ago now) was basically to HRT boymode and make money until I could make a (fairly) clean break and girlmode. I guess these days the ease of it or not has a lot to do with where you live and what your job market is like.

Are you already girlmoding or what? What country?

>>40467995 (OP)
Getting a job
Work at McDonald’s

>>40471240
Idk I've kinda been thinking about going back to boymode I'm like a part time girlmoder sometimes I dress feminine most of the time I wear basic graphic tees and jeans.

Im in the US

>>40471265
I work at target and it sucks I get 20hrs a week max

>>40471277
Have you done name/document change or anything or is it purely social transition at this point? Like are you employed under your birth ID?

>>40471316
Only social... I started going by she/they and asked to be called by a different name. I only got my driver's license gender marker changed some months ago idk how awkward that would be

>>40471346
I mean it'd be a little awkward but just for job purposes it's probably irrelevant, your W2s and stuff go off of social security and it sounds like you haven't done that yet.

I'd never tell someone what they absolutely should do in this situation but it sounds like you might find it easier to get work while you hrt boymode awhile and then move on with a clean-ish break?

>>40467995 (OP)
Nightshift

>>40468799
you could try applying to L1 helpdesk things, they're gonna care more about you being able to use a computer and good customer skills are an advantage (something a lot of senior tech people lack). just bear in mind you might have to start with less comfy conditions, helpdesk isn't highly paid and night shifts and stuff are common. in IT you really need to be continually training yourself and keeping up with new technologies to succeed.

>boomer
i was born in 1996 so yes.
>or not in US?
no, i'm in the czech republic. why do americans on this board assume everyone else is american anyway?

>>40472678
I asked a question, I didn't assume. I assume you're not American if IT is a possible career path actually.

>>40472898
>I assume you're not American if IT is a possible career path actually.
Why?

>>40472898
the way you asked the question, where the two acceptable answers are "american" or "not american", suggests that being american is the default nationality and being anything else is an anomaly. this does make it sound like an assumption and a strange one when you consider that more people live in the EU than live in the US and english proficiency among young people has never been higher so theoretically there's actually more of a chance of an anon being european than an anon being american.
