So a few years ago I worked as a stripper for like a year and a half to pay for some things. Looking back I really regret doing it. I’m always about people finding out about it in the future and it effecting my employability. So far nobody except a few friends know about and I hope to keep it that way but I’m worried that in the future it could come back to bite me.

Is there anyway I can keep this thing permanently hidden and if not then what should I do in the future if someone finds out? Like, how badly would it effect my image and is there anything I can do about it? What do I say to people of they find out?

      Worst case scenario some skeeve comes into your current job claiming he recognizes you. At which point you get offended and deny everything. Unless there’s a bunch of pictures and videos floating around of you from your days as a stripper but as far as I know that’s not exactly allowed in strip clubs?

        The club I worked in did you just weren’t allowed to record or take photos of anything.

      Do you need to run from it? In your post you say you regret it, but there is no shame in it. If someone really cares that much about it, perhaps that’s just a signal that they don’t need to be around you.
