TSA

Today, I was going through airport security. As my bags were being scanned, I was told that I was selected for extra searching. Right as the security guard was about to frisk me, he froze up and asked me, "You're a male, right?" I am, and I used to think that it was obvious. FML

Today, my younger sister, who lives at home and worked 1 day a week at the gym, got her unemployment card. I work at a hospital, on the frontlines, with COVID-19 patients. I don't get hazard pay. She now makes more than me in a week by sitting at home watching Netflix, while I risk my life every day to help people. FML

I've been mistaken for a guy a couple of times. I've never been very feminine to begin with, but at one point I had very short hair. The man that I was hoping would soon be my boss walked in the room and the first thing he said was "guy or girl?" his wife had to answer for him, as I couldn't stop laughing long enough to tell him. It's all in how you take it. As a mechanic, I'm expecting that I will get much more of it, so why get upset? I just laugh it off and move on.
