Since Halloween is coming up, I'd say it's a safe bet that you could go to work dressed as a woman, maybe even for the days before & after Halloween too. Talk with one of your female co-workers & tell her what you have in mind for Halloween, who knows, maybe she'd love to help you be one of the girls in the office & there might be a few more girls that would love to help you too.

As a crossdresser....you should leave it alone. But if you were planning on living as a woman permanently...then thats another thing. Many companies will fire you...some will be afraid to fire you....but even if you survive employment....the co-workers will be critical of you.
I know an automotive engineer...who made the decision to become a woman....he took a 6 month leave of absense from Ford. When he returned he was a woman....and he is still there...and after 3 years people have almost forgotten that he was ever a man.
This has to be a educated decision on your part.... think about the affect.

What can I say. Everyone has said it already. Absolutely no. Keep it for you and your lovers and social events. As a cross dresser dressing for work would be my last day of work. Good luck but I think you have your answer.

sadly- you will be judged very harshly. And people will lash out at you directly and indirectly in most situations and environments.
No matter where you work- someone is going to act differently towards you.
If you are serious about it, and it's important to your identity- then speak to your HR people about it. In most cases if you don't have paperwork from a psychiatric specialist that states you are suffering from Gender Dysphoria. They are going to tell you to stick to dress code for your gender.
In most states if you are legally transitioning your gender- they are legally obligated to assist you in any way possible.
But they can't regulate how people will think of you.
So be careful, and try to feel out reactions of those around you at your work. If it's a small enviroment, and the right industry...people might not care.
The point is- people are going to react to it. Even people that know you well. They see you a certain way, and to change that is going to scare them. You have to be sensitive to that. And not everyone will adjust.
I have doing alot of counseling with those suffering from gender dysphoria- and if you need to talk- feel free to email me and I will be happy to talk and help in any way I can.

your cross dressing you can do at home or for social events but for work, unless you want to risk loosing it, you have to dress in a professional manner. Unfortunately, a man dressed as a professional woman or vice versa is not considered professional

hmm, well it really depends on what kind of job you have. if you work in a business setting this will certainly cause you to lose tour job. if you work at a bar or club go right ahead.. BUT remember NO place really wants negative attention drawn away from what their selling.. if you do this customers will lose int rest on what their supposed to be buying.
PS: its OK to be yourself just not when you want to go to work a totally diff person

Ask your human resources department
I would say that if you pass, it shouldn't be a problem, but if you don't pass, I don't think you would be able to do it unless you work somewhere that the general public has no contact with you.

Isn't life hard enough without putting yourself in, least I say, an awkward situtation?
I would say thumbs down on this idea.

Discuss it with your human resource person first. some companies make provisions for things like this and they could advise you.

You'd probably get fired, or asked out on a date. Depends how nice you look.
