Actually, let me try something different than just asking for money for TDOV:

If you have any possible leads or hiring power for a job that hires for WFH customer/tech support out of Washington state PLEASE message or DM me and if you don't please share this.

I'm trans and stuck in Texas because nobody will hire me and I can't take my job with me when I move to Seattle. So my options are move and end up homeless, or stay where I am in increasing danger.

I have 12+ years of experience in call center work and legitimately just need a job so I can move.

@gwentacles

I encourage you to look at rents in Tacoma rather than Seattle unless you already have a friend there who you're going to stay with. Tacoma rents are significantly cheaper than Seattle and you can get to Seattle via train.

@CorvidCrone @gwentacles I think King county has some services Pierce doesn’t have (just based on which of my clients are eligible for what - I don’t live in either county), so if you need to be in King you could look to Lynnwood, Federal Way, Kent too. Everything in the Seattle metro area is super expensive but there are better and worse areas :’)

For jobs, I’d try temp agencies! I worked with Emerald Search Partners (legal focused but had call center jobs).

@Recalcitrant @gwentacles

That's true.

Some of the more effective social safety net services in Pierce county are not exactly government sanctioned.

@CorvidCrone @gwentacles Realistically you would put a local address down on your resume and then move immediately if you get something. Like don’t tell them you’re relocating, just do it. My interviews were phone & I didn’t even interview with the placement. Then once you’re here it’ll be easier to find something permanent or the temp agency will keep trying to find stuff for you.

Bumping for #tdov Need not quite met (almost there though!) and what an ironic and horrible time to do something so shitty to a group of trans people https://www.gofundme.com/f/aid-for-trans-refugees-being-forced-from-bloom-house-by-werq #mutualAid #transMutualAid #transDayOfVisibility #transDayOfRage
