My situation specifically is that I need a little more money and I will be getting promoted later this year from my main job but until then I need a little something extra . I'm still in college and with a main job and overnight housekeeping Ill be making 40 - 48k a year. Which is not too bad for a 23 year old even though I am behind.
On top of that I get a 10% discount off of new cars 15% off of used cars and 20% discount off of car parts so I will have nice car and a nice place to live.
Again the situation is temporary but honesty is appreciative.
Would a guy like me doing housekeeping overnight for extra income turn you off?
Just keep the details to yourself. Dont buy into today's world of oversharing - facebook and reality shows shoukd noy guide anyones life. There is no need for you to tell people you are a housekeeper. (and good on you for seizing the opportunity to earn a little extra)
Personally, I think it shows drive, and a willingness to get ahead. I say good for you! If someone would think less of you for working an extra job (regardless of what it is, legal that is) then shame on them!
Do you really care that much what other people think?
Listen. Some people will date you, some people won't. That will be the sum of the answers you'll get here and you will be none the wiser. Everyone is an individual and thinks differently, so why bother trying to analyze what some fictional woman thinks?
Do what pleases you, respect yourself, and stop using other people as a mirror for looking at yourself and judging/admiring what you see. That's the mark of a narcissist.

I was worried about the stigma of the job

If it bothers you when someone asks just give a little white lie or be vague. No one needs to know any of the details.
I hope they do. I really hope they see its just temporary and maybe they will respect me for my independence and as long as I'm in college and have my primary career they know I'm just doing it just to carry myself over for now.

A good woman will recognize your efforts in school and working a tough job in the evenings. I highly commend what you're doing.
You sound like a very good guy. Some lady Will be lucky.
