    You must tell us what you do for a living which would require professional Spankification.

    I'm thinking:
    1. Cocktail Waitress
    2. Airline Stewardess
    3. Restaurant Hostess in Beverly Hills or Vegas
    4. Weight Watchers Receptionist
    5. Planet Fitness Assistant Manager
    6. Babysitter for a Manhattan socialite's children
    7. Moderator at My Fitness Pal hoping for a promotion to a paid position.
    8. Keto Spokeswoman for a You Tube channel.
    Why #1 and #2 and #6 in your list?

    Cool. I've worked 3 jobs before too and socked a lot of money sway.

    I am asking why you put them on your list. They don’t seem like positions where Spanx would be necessary. I’m not saying I work in any of those fields.

    I think she was being facetious- I thought it was pretty funny

    Back in the day, female flight attendants had to wear a girdles by some, maybe all, airlines.

    #8's not being questioned? LOL.

    I think that one sealed the joke for me. Really, it could be any way of eating. With just about every way of eating, there will be someone trying to sell it to you by presenting you with a good looking spokesperson. Not that the way of eating doesn't work but, at least in America, there's always that "this person lost 20 pounds in 30 days with this one trick. Find out how!!" way of selling things.

    Ok you're a serious career girl, officey type, 9 to 5ish, college after high school, spring break at Virginia Beach. Since you just won't tell I have to guess.

    Do you think an employer who promotes (not requires) the wearing of Spanx under a work uniform is participating in body shaming? I will not disclose my industry or employer though I will mention I am not in the modeling line of work.

    I have always found spanx to be ridiculously laughable. Who do people think they're fooling? 😝
