Went in yesterday for my assessment tests for the job I'm interested in. I looked nice, threw on gray Dockers, a striped blue button up Polo shirt, and a yellow and blue tie. I figured I might as well milk what I've got and I've got good fashion sense when I bother to care. There were about six of us sitting around waiting and eventually they called us all back to some computers to take the exams. They were supposed to take an hour and a half to two hours. I flew through it, it was computer basics, customer service basics, call center basics, and some more advanced technical things. I was the first person done, I think it took me about 45 minutes max. So I let the lady in charge of testing us know and she checked my answers, let me know I passed (and that I pwned on the time it took to take it) She asked me to come back in at one to have an interview with a hiring manager.

The interview didn't go that great. I've started talking to people a bit more between the Prozac and testosterone but the entire interview was kinda awkward. It was basically all behavioural "tell me about a time when" questions that the dude just read from a piece of paper. I tried but I'm just not great at that type of interview. We did loosen up some towards the end when I asked him a few questions about the company so my fingers are still crossed. I really want to get it but I mean stressing isn't gonna change anything so just gotta keep positive. I will find out sometime next week if I go in for training.

So anyway last night I woke up in the middle of the night and couldn't get back to sleep and had to work at 6 am so it was pretty crazy. I'm glad to be home to enjoy this beautiful last day of the world.

Oh yeah, testosterone thoughts. I'm a week and a half into my first shot but as I've mentioned I was on it for half a year or so before. What I've noticed is my sex drive is increasing (awesome because Prozac decreased it), my facial hair is coming back in coarser, (and I have a couple mustache hairs I never had before) I smell worse and sweat more, I get hot flashes, and I have to really think before I talk sometimes cuz I can blurt out jerky things I'm not cool with.

Also I am fucking hating another summer in a binder. I am seriously considering taking donations or figuring out a way to get going on my chest surgery fund. I am beyond ready to get these things off my chest. I have a big chest and it's a really big pain to always have to bind. At work it's unbelievable how hot it is to be wearing that extra layer of compression.

career, testosterone, the trans, the future
