Are you friends or relatives with Undertakers?

[Jim Tom]

They get paid well and are fairly educated. Don’t see why they’d be spooky lol.

You can't be hanging around corpses and remain well.

I job shadowed one in high school. He was super nice and pretty much as authentic and calm as you can be.

The shadow made me realize that the work would be too heavy for me. No way could I do it and be as positive and calm as that guy.

Did you sleep well at night and were you able to eat your meals normal during that period?

[Jim Tom]

There was a job opening for a undertaker a few years ago I was dead serious thinking of going for cause they get paid really good.

What stopped you from going for it?

[Jim Tom]

Nah I'm good mates with his brother Kane though

Lol, the guy's a Mayor now so I read.

My ex's uncle was an undertaker. excellent money to be made if you own that kind of business, he was loaded. People are always dying too, so you never really run out of customers.

Anyway, he seemed pretty normal

Did you ever visit his house and have a meal? I guess he never ran out of meat too.

Embalmer is more spooky than undertaker. Growing up our town's embalmer is famous mainly because he is feared by children including me at the time. He gives an aura of spooky 'cos he embalms dead people. There was even an urban legend about him raping beautiful dead women before he embalms them.

Lol. Did people actually know that's what he did for a living? I've also heard some of them have sex with corpses.

[Jim Tom]

You have to be a real people person to be an undertaker. Everyone I've met has been extremely patient and nice. You have to be when you're dealing with grieving people for a living.

I applied for a job to be a funeral driver when I was in my early 20s, driving a hearse around and transporting dead bodies. I didn't get the job though, wasn't qualified enough.

Wow turned you down from driving a corpse? What qualifications did they need? You are brave though.

Are they normal people or are they spooky?
Do you visit their houses?
Do you eat their food?
I'm not disrespecting the profession as it's a vital one but just wanted to know.

Yeah. They are regular folks.

A dead body is just a dead body. Not greatly unique about them. They just stink sometimes.

[Rockybigblower]

How much money do they usually make?

If you were to take into account the black market organ sales...and removing jewellery and gold teeth from the bodies...I expect there is a pretty penny to be made.

By the end of the day I was glad to get away from it. I was able to take liquids just fine but eating did feel a little weird. Maybe it's something you'd get used to, but it was pretty heavy stuff.
