So I’m about too start a job at spectrum cable and I’m not out has trans in the workplace and I was wondering if Amy knows if spectrum is a trans friendly employer, cause I can’t really afford to lose the job nothing I can get outside of it pays as well.

My mom used to work for Spectrum here in WI so once she wakes up I'll ask her if she knows anything. As the mother of two trans kids I would hope she knows something. I'll get back to you later this afternoon.

So the company is currently still committed to DEI and supportive of the LGBTQ+ workforce. Although some changes have occurred in the last couple years like movement of those who held higher positions, Spectrum still holds its core values. Around 3 yrs ago, I was able to join an internal community that during Pride Month, gave me some exclusive Spectrum LGBTQ+ swag. Lost of leaders within the company are still made up of community members. And while the company doesn’t specifically state they’re pro-trans, the acronym pretty much gives way to understanding their support.

It’s a tough gig. Took me almost 3 yrs to nail down. One person said there was no way I’d get it within the 1st yr. I’m happy I stayed. I definitely think environment plays a role. I’ve watched a lot of entitled people move to our community so that can make for a rough interaction but it’s like that anywhere you’re public facing. Did my previous job for almost 2 decades and I watched the “me first” mentality and entitlement grow amongst consumers. Pick your poison. Didn’t think I’d last. I went out on lunch breaks questioning myself at that store for most of the first 12 months. And I wanted that job just before the pandemic hit. I’m approaching 4 yrs in the fall. You never know unless you try.

I’m worried that my voice, communication style, and body language comes across as too effeminate for our straight clients and peers.

I grew up in a nuclear family away from extended relatives who were never really close. Parents were either emotionally unavailable or distant.

Honestly this sucks & it feels like I'll never have a huge supportive family I've wanted & craved for.
