I'm an androgynous black trans person with freeform dreadlocks in Florida looking for a job. Especially judging by past experiences I've had in attempting to secure jobs, even for positions that I have years of experience in, I have refused to apply to any places that require in-person work. 

I also do not apply to jobs that are remote and would require me to show my face through a video call. I avoid mentioning race on job applications, and I just put my assigned sex at birth on them too. 

Before I started doing my most recent remote gig, DataAnnotation, I tried for roughly 2 months to secure various kinds of """"unskilled labor"""" jobs like working at grocery stores, cafes, and restaurants, and not a single one took me. Mind you, like I said, I have years of experience in these areas. 

I do not want to repeat that cycle, which was not only frustrating due to how badly I need a job but also frustrating because it led me to dive into more and more self-hatred, where I literally perceive myself as subhuman because of who I am, so I refuse to seek jobs that:

• require onsite work
• require me to show my face in any capacity
• require me to state my race

This is greatly limiting, but it's the only way I can see myself granting myself any realistic advantage. I'm confident that I would not have gotten DataAnnotation in the first place if it didn't meet these three requirements. Unfortunately, DataAnnotation has no transparency whatsoever and has seemingly chopped me with no explanation. Yay for more mental breakdowns and doubt if I'll even be able to survive for long due to how impossible it is for me to get a job!
