Drawing from his qualitative research project on un\/deremployment among trans* individuals, Irving will present the major issues that many trans* people face when trying to obtain and maintain work. Featuring excerpts from research interviews, Irving demonstrates the ways that trans* experiences urge labour activists to reflect on the significance of affective, or emotional labour in all sectors of post-industrial capitalism.   The personal experiences of trans* reveal the ways that gender normativity, mediated by whiteness, influence who is recognized as employable within a service relation based economy  geared to create positive feeling states among clients and customers.  The often unspoken and unspeakable feelings that particular bodies are worth-less on the labour market results in excluding particular trans* people from employment while marginalized others within the workplace. This exclusion has a debilitating emotional impact on trans* people and communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
