I started hormones around 9 months ago and a few months ago felt like I couldn’t stand my job for one more second and quit. I’ve been applying to jobs in my field, and I’m getting interviews consistently. Every single time so far I’ve eventually gotten this horrible feeling like I don’t want anything to do with the company or the people who work at them. This has resulted in me… lets say not bringing my A game to the interviews because frankly I don’t even want these jobs, so I haven’t gotten any offers.

Idk what to do at this point other than keep trying and hoping someone decides to give me a chance. I’ve thought about changing careers, but I’m in my 30s so it feels a little late. Part of me can’t imagine staying in my field anymore, the people are just so gate keepy and elitist, but I also can’t imagine anything else being better…

What were y’alls experience after hormones? Did you change careers, stay? Did things work out?

    while perceived as a white cis male I would get regular raises and I’d move up the ladder by changing companies

    since transitioning I’ve watched as my salary has slowly declined year over year.

    I’m in software engineering fwiw
