Searched and found a smattering of different threads on coming out at work. Seems like for most it's a two step process. Let HR and your immediate management know and then at some point down the road there's the coming out to everyone you work with. That's all great information, but there's a piece missing that I'm wondering about.
How did you decide when you should tell HR/Management and when to tell your co-workers. I'm guessing for most, coming out to co-workers is part of going full-time or at least full-time at work. Did anyone tell co-workers sooner than that? Maybe when the effects of HRT were no difficult to conceal? What about management. What factors led you to decide on the right time to tell HR and your management about your plans to transition? Obviously, everyone's work situation is different, I get that. I'm just hoping to get some perspective from your experience.
