Hi everyone! I wanted to post in the group because I’m interested in working in a trade (specifically electrical but open to any). I’m a transman but without my legal info changed so I can’t exactly be stealth. I was about to start an apprenticeship a few months back but the owner of the company mentioned some of his political stances and I knew it wouldn’t really be a safe situation for me which was super disappointing. Does anyone in the group work in the trades/looking for apprentices or can point me in the right direction of a good company that would be more accepting? I already have my apprentice license so I’m just looking for guidance with that next step, hope everyone has a great weekend 🖤

Hello everyone! I had an unexpected car repair this week and I had to use the money I needed to pay our electricity bill. My wife and I share one car so I had no choice but to get the repairs done immediately. If I can’t pay the bill by today they will cut our power tomorrow. I’ve been doing DoorDash on top of my normal job but I’m still about 100 short to be able to make the payment and I’m not sure what else to do. If anyone is able to help me get closer to the total I would be sososo grateful. I had reached out to a local church but they stopped replying to our email thread after asking for my energy provider.
Thank you for reading this! I have Venmo/cashapp

Hi everyone, I’m looking for any suggestions for local companies/businesses around Frisco/Plano/The Colony that are lgbt friendly but more specifically trans friendly as far as hiring goes. I’ve been looking for a second job but I’ve had to turn down some opportunities after looking into the companies because I did not feel safe (my legal name/gender haven’t been changed).
I have a ton of kitchen/management experience but I’m also interested in learning a trade! I was about to start an apprenticeship for electrical but the owner made his political views clear and I couldn’t go through with it. I’m open to any/all types of work and just hope to connect with some like-minded people in the area. It’s lonely here as a transman especially being a bit further from Dallas and Fw. Advice is welcome please be kind 🖤 open to making friends in the area as well :)
