so i think after a long time of searching and mind changing ive decided to become an embalmer.and my moms ok with it,i think i like working with dead bodies and i wont have to use empathy!

this is awsome

alrighty then lol

Lot of stiffs at that job

buisness will always be dead...

hey...whatever floats your boat

The best kind...LOL

Dead people never give you any S H I T.........

Somebody has to do it.

I hear the tips kind of suck though.

Sometimes.. That is the last thing they give.

lol thanks!i wont have to worry about drunk rednecks calling in about their refunds

there may be some stiff competition lol

OMG, what has this forum came to?...lol, j/king right on to you...follow what you desire to do.

lmao yall are cracking me up

yeah, we're good at that

a friend of mine from high school lost her brother in a really bad car wreck...

when they went to view the body, it was difficult to tell who it was, but when they went to the funeral, the mortician made the bruises disappear

he looked as tho he was only sleeping, she was very moved by that, and became one herself, just so she could help people get over their loss

one thing about anyone's profession, you never really know how many lives you touch on a daily basis...so take pride in what ya do

good luck

Big responsibility and many demands...I wish you the best.

In the funeral home that I worked in years ago, the embalmer and the makeup artist were two different people, each with a specialty. Our makeup artist was amazingly proficient and you'd be amazed at the range of facial prosthetics that she had at her disposal. She almost always worked from a photo that was requested from the family but was also adept at winging it if one wasn't available.

I bet your dying to get your hands on them!

Just make sure you wont be charged for a double dead
