Well the month is almost over and it has been busy, but good.
It started out with a date... then turned into a 24 hour date. So that started my week off well. But on labor day I had to fly up to HQ for training, I got my badge and even go Ben put on it (i haven't legally changed it yet) and I told everyone in my group, the referred to me as "him" "his" and "he". it was avery nice experience. But the funny thing was that when I changed my name in apple directory I didn't know it changed it in everything (my work email, my name on all company print outs and my name in the POS system) so when I got back my manager asked me "why did you change your name and not tell me" I told her i didn't know that it would change everything and that was the turning point and I started telling all my coworkers in the store and the response has been awesome. No one has cared or even batted an eye at the matter. They've started to call me Ben here too, so it's going great.
So things are going well.
