Screwing up my cross dressing time!

[kittypw GG]

This is gonna be awful. The only redeeming point in having a job that keeps me away from my family so much was that I DID get to be me so much.

Does this mean that you are not you when you are with your family more?

I find this very sad. I am sorry that you feel so disconnected from your family and you live a dual life or reality.

I don't have any answers for you because I could never figure out how to make it work with my CD. I would like to hear more stories of sucessful relationships with cd's.

Perhaps you have been given the gift of opportunity to reconnect with your family and a new satifactory balance will be found.

As far as losing your job to a new guy. Well one should always have a alternate career route or back up plan because nothing is ever for sure. High customer satifaction is making a come back in many industries because it is how you get an edge on your competition. This might be exactly what your company is doing by haveing more people who can provide this service. In my profession Service excellance is our number one goal corporation wide.

Kim, I hope that as you go thru this you will find the company wants you even more. I have been in a similar situation and in my case they did replace me with the new guy. BUT, I found out later it was because his new wife was needed badly and giving him my job was part of her negociations.... and she was very important to the company soo.... out goes C.

Yours may be completely different, likely it is very different. Right now it is not a surprise for a company to try and lower travel costs. They are rising very quickly. If it is possible I would consider trying to feel out your bosses on the why. It may be just the cost of travel and they are trying to save $$ in an economy where that is hard to do. Sleuth out the why if you can.

As for the lost dressing time, there is always a way, you'll just have to create it. I have to admit that I've been jealous in a way of your travel, simply because it gave you so many opportunities. But you created those opportunities by being creative and brave. There is no doubt in my mind that those qualities in you will find a way around the problem.

Good luck during this time of change, keep that wonderful smile on

My guess is they are going to split you into regions, If he lives in Det or up north, maybe he will handle those jobs and can do by driving and maybe only staying a day or two, as in the past , it sounded like you could be gone for a week., my second guess is they will hire some cheaper guys and they will report to you

Hopefully it wont cut into your girl time, if it does, make some trips to Dallas and I will show you around

I usually get a lot of time to cross dress because I travel for a living as a Field Service Engineer. When my company sells some of the larger and more complicated systems, I go set them up and train the customer, and when our stuff breaks, I go fix it. Well, my company is in the process of hiring someone in the Detroit area to start "taking some of the load off" of me, and reduce our travel expenses. When they get him on board (like days from now), I'm supposed to take him everywhere I go and give him on the job training.
This is gonna be awful. The only redeeming point in having a job that keeps me away from my family so much was that I DID get to be me so much. So the next few months are out while I train him. After he's trained, I will presumably travel a lot less too, so I guess I better get used to being a guy! lol
Of course now I'm also scared because just why would they keep me around if they have someone to do all the work I've been doing?

Mmmm........ well Kimbley it depends on what kind of 'training', you want to give him... there is walking in heels training, sitting like a lady training, make-up training etc etc.........

I was thinking the same thing AWhat would be funny is the new person is a CD and whants to go out too. You could als make sure your on different sides and floors of the hotel with seperate cars so you can still get out.

The other option is to let them meet Kimberly.

What if he use to sell Mary Kay .

I hope your schedule doesn't get too out of whack!

Hi Kitty... Let me jump to Kims defence here, as I think you might be missing the point.

She is saying the only redeeming point in having a job that keeps her away from her family ~ was that she did get to be the other side of her.

I have seen many posts from Kim saying how she misses her family while she's away doing her job. She is saying she doesn't like to be away, but at least she turns it around and makes the best of it.

As good as you look Kimberly, you could train him to crossdress and then they would probably fire him for that! Well, you could always hope.

[TxKimberly]

Kimber... I know some "people" in Detroit.. Just say the word.. everything will be taken care of.
Of course that wouldn't stop the company from hiring somebody else.
It all kinda sucks.. hope it all works out for you.

ROFL - Thanks Tedi! If i don't like the guy I may take you up on that!

I think they have something different in store for you, Kimberly... US Sales Manager. If I were you, I'd start getting your business skirt suit wardrobe in order.

Nah, I tried the management thing once and didn't care for it. Since I was very young I've had an interest and a talent for fixing widgets. That's what I like, that's what I enjoy. I'll leave the babysitting . . .err . . . I mean managing to others.

. . . Didn't I tell you? - the new 'guy' is me!... It's going to be great, we can go out shopping together..... and you can show me the sights !...

Suzy, you have no idea how cool I think that would be! This would go from being a disaster to a awesome blessing!

. . . Does this mean that you are not you when you are with your family more? I find this very sad. I am sorry that you feel so disconnected from your family and you live a dual life or reality. . .

OUCH! I hadn't quite meant it that way but I do see how it might come across that way. It's not so much that I feel like a different person when I'm with my family. I think it's more that feel sort of . . . umm . . . truncated. Not quite complete - like a huge part of me is stuffed away and hidden. I don't know how else to describe it.

[Anita1day]

As the girls are implying, be innovative!

[MeraLehanga]

dont be so optimistic that the new guy will take your job. Yes, do train him. I know from experience that what all we may imagine gonna happen hardly turns out that way. Maybe your company is growing, they need more engineers / technicians, or maybe they are thinking of making you a boss to call your own shots and make your own trips to assure everything is in order. Dont you think it could happen that way?

[Carly D.]

Show him EVERYTHING.. and I do mean crossdressing as a means to relax.. maybe he'll do it as well...

["Mary"]

Didn't I tell you? - the new 'guy' is me!... Suzy

Darn - Suzy beat me to it!! Very funny!

[KimberlyS]

Kimberly, I hope the job situation goes to your benefit. More time with family can only be a plus IMHO.

As for fitting in CDing time around home it can be done. Chances will present there self. Also if you wife is like mine, she will know you need some femme time and between the two of you something can be worked out.

as I was reading through the replys I was thinking the same thing Charleneis saying about you being creative andbrave making those oppertunitys happen Youll figure out a way And when you do youll love it cause youll be happy being Kim and youll benear your family

[fempsyche]

I would really hope that everything works out for the better with you and your dressing. I always dreamed of having a job like yours where travel was frequent and allowed time for dress. And another reason, I hope everything works out for you, is that you look so damn hot - it would be a crime for you not to.

I hope that this change works out for you and that you end up with some trips where you find a way to dress and go out. I really enjoy hearing about your adventures. And if you're ever in Philadelphia and need a base of operations, just drop me a note. I'd love to meet you and join you for an outing.

Try talking to the boss and let him know that you are happier with being on the road and this makes you a more productive team member. If you are a valued team member your boss will take care of you.

[kellyann2012]

Kimberly,

I'm sure things are not as bad as it seems. Things have a way of working out for the best and I'm sure that after it's all said and done you will be a better woman for it all. Were always welcome with us.
