Someone apprentices at crematorium?

[โ€“] Auduras 6 points 7 months ago

An old coworker of mine at some part-time gig went to school and studied "Mortuary Science". Absolutely fascinated me. He had a second job at a crematorium where he was an apprentice.

After him telling me that, I realized that I never thought about how someone got into that field. Never really considered someone going to school to do this as a career (which now I realize is obvious, but I never connected the dots).

Always assumed people working at a crematorium or a cemetery was a cliche old decrepit guy.
