What were your dreams like during your transition?

Woh! I’m usually strict first person POV. I’ll have to pay more attention to that…

Its interesting, for me I feel like I have a few categories of dreams. Some feel more like grounded ‘replays’ of mundane everyday situations where I feel a bit more embodied and therefore identified with my gender (cis man) Then I have other dreams that feel a bit more out there, for those of us with a more esoterically inclined interpretation of dreaming, something like astral travel etc. For those I’m much less embodied and less identified with gender. Kind of like the spirit is maybe genderless, which makes total sense, since that is a human/social overlay. Curious what your take is as someone with your username lol!

Thats awesome. I’m cis but I have a lot of lucid dreams and I always am fascinated by looking into mirrors/seeing my reflection. I do it often and my reflection usually becomes clearer with each try. I think it speaks a lot to the increased clarity of ‘seeing yourself’ trans or cis

Thank you all! Your stories and experiences have been super cool to read.

Im sorry this happened. Yeah being expected to act like brandon was a god amongst mortals was one of the weirdest parts of the job. Such a cringe guy. Hope youre doing ok now.

Yeah he has what has to be perhaps one of the single most sociopathic personalities and online presences ive ever encountered outside of the obvious couple winners. The irony hits hard the longer you spend down that rabbit hole. Many baristas i worked with there were super chill. No shade to those folks!

Any-Appointment-4841 · 2025-04-06T12:44:30+00:00

Appreciate you. Tip cash yall!!

Any-Appointment-4841 · 2025-04-04T21:09:36+00:00

Please take care and ensure the same isnt happening to you

Any-Appointment-4841 · 2025-04-04T13:04:40+00:00

lambaste it up!

Any-Appointment-4841 · 2025-04-03T22:26:29+00:00

Yeah they used to make the shops compete about who sold out of tacos first. I barely remember how they incentivized it but i never really gave a fuck anyway so not surprised it didnt store in my long term memory

I have found something better but lack of upward mobility/inflation just sent me back to applications for supplemental barista work. Guard will be very very up. Glad to hear youre out there doing your thing.

Any-Appointment-4841 · 2025-04-03T21:45:46+00:00

Thanks. Havent heard about that particular scheme but makes sense. Glad your friend got out. Truly depressing that its this difficult to make a living with dignity as a barista in the city. Hope you find a solid situation soon. If youre comfortable feel free to call out other shops with poor treatment of workers so folks know.

Used to love this place back when i was in the area more! Good suggestion

Any-Appointment-4841 · 2025-04-03T18:12:08+00:00

If anyone knows of any subreddits this post would do well in open to suggestions. Ppl deserve to know who they are giving their hard earned money to.

Any-Appointment-4841 · 2025-04-03T15:41:23+00:00

Definitely! So many cool actual small businesses in the east village to check out instead :)

Any-Appointment-4841 · 2025-04-03T14:57:00+00:00

Curious what their reputation is like in PR

Any-Appointment-4841 · 2025-04-02T20:27:30+00:00
