“As a transgender man, the owner of the first restaurant I worked in continually outed me at work. She would take it upon herself to show me off as her token trans employee, telling people she knew me as ‘she/her,’ and would do this to everyone from new hires to guests whom I had never met. Before transitioning, I worked at the same restaurant, and while presenting as female, my male chef would make comments about my body, and on multiple occasions would run his spoon up the crack of my butt during service. He also told me (post-transition) that he ‘should have fucked me while I was still a girl.’”
