Catalogues.


It was not the sort of job he was looking for.

But the money sounded good so he phoned up the next day and left his particulars and contact details.

He was invited next Monday for an interview.

He was surprised by how many women had applied for the job.

Thinking he had no chance of getting it he was going to go home but the little voice in his mind reminded him he needed the money.

He sat there for almost 2 hours waiting for his turn to go in.

They took a couple of photographs and asked him a few questions about himself.

He was embarrassed at first having to tell them that he used to be a man before the great shift and that he was still getting too terms with his new body.

He left the interview feeling confident but not too sure if he would get the job.

So he was surprised two days later to get a phone call informing him that he had got the job.

He could not believe the preparation it took when he turned up for his first photo shoot.


They squeezed him into some very uncomfortable vintage underwear and spent almost an hour doing his makeup making him look like the perfect 1940's girl.




He felt ridiculous when he saw himself in the mirror with all that slap on his face as he stood there following the instructions of the photographer.

He was never going to be a runway model but he got a lot of interest from the catalogues.
