@foldedunfolding Death and dying - a normal part of life. Offering comfort to grieving family and friends as well as providing the deceased with dignity in after life care is an honorable and noble thing to do. Both professionally (as a nurse) and in my personal life, I have held the hand of my own dying loved ones, as well as patients whose families could not do so for whatever reason. Providing that last loving gesture means so much and is a deeply personal, caring, act. Working in a funeral home or morgue is no less compassionate and no less necessary for the person and their family than the lasts acts performed while they are alive. Bottom line, compassion for people who are hurting, in life or through the death process, is why I would have no problem with it.

No, just no. I have seen way too many dead people in my 27year Army career including kids and women, and even outside of that service time, including best friends and my own son that committed suicide post their service. No absolutely not.

@WillaKissing ugh i am so sorry!! but yeah i just heard this expert on court tv saying that there has to be a "certain comfort with death and even gore"..i said unh uh..never will i ever..i feel like u are almost too far gone if u are COMFORTABLE with that
WillaKissing · 56-60, M
@foldedunfolding Let me say that dealing the gore was shocking and applying when young, but I grew into it and it did become relieving until it was kids and innocents or your buddies, then it got real again.
That is all I will say about it.

I used to want that job when I was 19. Then my mom wasted away from cancer and died and a couple friends died in car accidents with gruesome open caskets. One was so bruised and swollen they put tulle up to shroud. The other they couldn't put her broken neck back straight enough.
Over the next few years and it really traumatized me to see dead people and I was not interested in it anymore.
I really thought I could have been a good funeral director until death happened too close to me.

@Starcrossed aw man that is so rouggghhhh..im so sorry you had to see and gro through all that 😪
The idea gives out the altruistic vibe though not sure if I'd be able to handle too much of grief 24/7 yet the job provides tremendous amount of groundedness to the ones working there, if at all they intend to grab it.

@dontbekoi omg i cant watch horror! never seen it
dontbekoi · 36-40, F
@foldedunfolding
I don't watch horror either. This series is something I have never seen before. It's like a Gothic Family Love Story ? At the end I was in a flood of tears. Not because I was terrified (which there were times I was LOL) but how sad it was. I have only had this reaction from books I have read. Michael Flanagan did such a good job directing this. Any who ... not to give spoilers away ... one of the main characters is a woman and she runs a funeral home. It's intense. Her mother and sister passed away and let's say they are not leaving in a hurry 😉

A surgeon friend of mine transplanted a vagina onto a prostitutes hip, she wanted to make a little money on the side..

I doubt it. I've seen enough, and sadly, there's more to come.
Prisoner1972 · 51-55, M
Thought I could do that. I started looking at websites that sold funeral director supplies. Funeral clothing. Embalming fluids. Caskets. Embalming machines. One of the items for sale was those Fruit Of The Loom tighty-whiteys. And the thought of having to put those on a corpse and adjusting his dick and balls in them grossed me the fuck out. And i became instantly content with my career (and mediocre wages) in Civil Service.

Yes. I have been in one as a lab intern. I think it might be interesting.....
