Y'all, I got my hopes up about a job

I also just got rejected for a job. I didn't think I had a chance but I got really far along - I think because I took a chance and talked about how it would make a huge difference to my life as a trans person cause my current job is not good in that regard (it was for a hipster restaurant so I figured if they're not transphobic it would help my chances). Hurt so much more to get rejected when I put myself out there like that... Like my struggles are worthless and anyone in a position of power couldn't care as long as they're putting their $$ first. My life is completely disposable. Which is true under capitalism and more so as a trans person. Just sucks to see potentially having financial security and a safe workplace waved in front of my face and then snatched away with a generic email. It's not like they even had just one position... they're opening a whole new restaurant so I guess trans people are just that worthless to them. Don't even deserve an entry level job.
