My First Day Full Time!!!!

[Guest Rayne]

OK, first...if you can swing it - get sick.

It worked for me.

I transitioned in front of people I'd been working with for 3 years and I happened to do it on a day when I have the Martian Death Flu.

I was to tired to care about people's reactions and to sick to worry about it.

B cup, thank you very much on the bra.

Best makeup tip I can EVER give you: Go with mineral powder!!!

Buy a simple base that matches your skin tone, and a translucent powder to seal that in. I put this stuff on in TWO minutes and it works great! It doesn't clog your pores so you wont sweat it off. Trust me, girls.....once you try it you'll NEVER go back! You don't have to go for the expensive stuff on TV, Walgreens has it as do most other stores.

I find that people are either over using my name in an effort to get use to calling me Rayne, or not having anything to do with me. I had one friend cuss me out today and another ignore me all together.

That's ok....I anticipated it.

To transition means that you have to walk into work with a "I don't give a flying...." attitude. Just BE who you are and let the chips fall where they may. That way if you're rejected by the occasional close minded person, you were ready.

Worked for me.

I'd never worn a bra all day before and it took a couple hours to get use to but it was ok.

Overall it was a GREAT experience....minus the 24 hour version of the Ebola virus I was sick with. Most people treated me as they usually did anyway. I focused on my job.....there's another tip right there, girls - focus on your job...and the day went pretty smoothly.

It felt wonderful to FINALLY be Rayne at work!!! From here I continue to discover who I am and it's going to be a delicious journey.

I'm relieved to get that first day under my belt.

Oh, Hon....

Congratz on your first true day! How wonderful that was. Well, Rayne, I'm glad most things went smooth for you and you seemed to relish it. The ones that gave you attitude weren't your friends anyway, were they? Didn't think so.....

So sorry that you were sick, though..that must of helped your "I don't give a ____" attitude

Well, now Hon...with that under your belt I see a rosey future for you...lots more chances to be "Rayne" and be your true self.....you did good!
