Hi all:
Today i stoped at HR with my Union rep. & told them what was going on & showed them the letter stating i should be using the ladies room. He gave me a copy of my file & we talked about what is going on. He is willing to change the name on my badge right away if i wish. He asked if they could have a week to figure out how to handle the rest room issue. It kind of scares me as to how nice they were to me( not normal for my place). I told him i wanted to make this as comfortable for them as they would for me(no waves). They seem to be very thankful that i was looking out for others in the shop as well. They asked about making people call me by my female name. I said that the forman only use it when he gives me my job in the morning so at this time no, but still would like them to use the her, she phrases when i am present. I believe it all went well, what more can a girl ask for(wife to accept, thats all). This is the happiest i have been in years & if you are pondering your path take steps,small yet positive ones, & you too can be very happy.
Sorry this is long but when one feels like a very lucky girl she just seems to chat forever. Thank you all for being here, your wonderful. I hope that this helps someone on their journey. We are all family & really should help each other. THANKS so very much!
Love & tons of HUGS, Janelle
