@Tattie personally what I find the most important is that people don't make a huge deal out of it should it happen, apologize for the lapse and move on. I really don't need to hear someone's self flagellation that disrupts the flow of conversation

Just one trans woman's opinion, but I hold that the ideal way to recover from accidentally misgendering a person and being called out is to simply repeat the sentence, corrected. -
I don't normally post here or anywhere really, but I'm genuinely at a loss.I don't normally post here or anywhere really, but I'm genuinely at a loss. I'm a systems administrator and a devops engineer looking for work somewhere that isn't where I live right now. Main motivation is looking for a safer space as a trans person and some other personal reasons. Existing where I am now only makes me spiral more and more into bad mental health space.
While I am an EU citizen technically, I feel like every attempt I make at looking for work hits a wall almost immediately due to language requirements. And while I'm not opposed to actually learning a new language, it would be nice to find somewhere to put a foot in the door and work on my language skills after I'm a tiny bit confident it's a place that fits me.
Maybe I'm just naive and this isn't generally something that exists, but I feel like I hear of people working for english speaking companies often enough so surely it's a thing. But if so, where does one actually find such places?
