To pay them less? That’s so fucked up.

so i guess it was a massive red flag when i asked them how many cameras were in the room during my interview

No, but telling them about your Twitch channel was a bad idea.

I was more thinking they meant it’s something useful for women who’s into that stuff.

I mean, honest question that I really do not want to google. Is this actually a wide spread problem?
nymnympseudonym@piefed.social 2 weeks ago
wide spread

Ok that ones on me, I should’ve caught that

I had an ex who worked in this field, she went to mortuary school and worked in mortuaries, before that she worked in organ transplant. She went into the field because of a combination of personal tragedy (a close one passing away at an early age) and seeing how delicately the mortuary and handled the event.
Anyhow, she and I would talk about it often. One of the things she would note on, wasn’t that it was sexual based things men would do (besides general office sexism coming from men on occasion), but more about the level of respect they showed the deceased. Crude Comments they’d make about their weight, features etc…
So I think it just depends and it would be difficult to verify these other claims because the “victims” are deceased and most things related to it seem to be anecdotal.
I’m also not going to google necro in anyway

seeing how delicately the mortuary handled the event
I sure wish I’d had this experience with the funeral home I picked out when my dad died. I called them to arrange to pick up his body, and the answering service was AI and obviously so. I gave them his name and the voice read it back to me to confirm it as “Robert common name R-O-B-E-R-T, Smith common name S-M-I-T-H”. Then the owner ghosted me for more than a week and only delivered the urn with the ashes in the night before the internment at 8:00, left it outside and split before I could talk to him. 8 grand well spent.

True. Humans only become valuable once they are dead.
They only say you were a good person once you are dead, say you were too young, they go “if only we knew, they seemed fine” if you kill yourself, then go to imvestigate, once you are already dead.
How many writers were ridiculed and rejected, before becoming famous AFTER their death?
Once you are more like an object, once you have no more feelings, is when they start actually valuing you for what you were.
Same as how people will value their cars, or precious things more than people.
Same as how people romanticise native americans, years after they were almost exterminated completelly (while mostly treating those still alive like shit).

Shitty pay, crappy hours, being surrounded by the dead all the time… You either gotta love the job or end up loving the dead…
Some jobs need to be done, but who’s to do them? Can one be completely sane and handle this kind of life without issue for years on end? Most of the people employed tell themselves it’s just a job and spend their time dodging the reality of handling the dead all the time, but a few… well… they go all in.
Normal is a state of mind that has us come to grips with that which is beyond our control.
toynbee@piefed.social 2 weeks ago
My wife was in the funeral industry for a while and studying mortuary sciences. She says she left because it was too depressing being pressured to upsell grieving families all the time.
DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I’m guessing it’s hard to come by reliable stats. It’s on the same level as priests abusing children, the cover-up would be extensive.

I just meant in modern times is it a wide spread problem that morticians are fucking the dead. You think that shit would hit the news if it was is all.

It’s not even true, classic internet misinformation. I’m shocked Lemmy isn’t calling it out, it’s slowly becoming reddit

No because men rape the dead bodies of women

I wouldn’t even consider to call them human, let alone “men”. Just talking animal.

There was some (mildly) famous case, I think a book was written about it, of a woman who was a necrophiliac and worked at a morgue. There was a big reddit thread about it years ago.
BanMe@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Bit chauvinistic to assume women can’t be necrophiles if they put their minds to it, innit?
Unlike the FBI I don’t make crass assumptions about my perverts.
AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Also corpses turn rigid.
Just saying.
Bazell@lemmy.zip 2 weeks ago
What exactly are the reasons?
okwhateverdude@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Apparently they think women don’t wanna fuck corpses. But I am pretty sure the people that go into that industry are probably cut from the same cloth
Soulg@ani.social 2 weeks ago
If that’s actually the reason then I must be doing pretty good mentally because it would’ve taken me a while to think of that, not a “we all know because it’s obvious” tier thing
flamingo_pinyata@sopuli.xyz 2 weeks ago
It’s mechanically difficult for women to do it since corpses don’t have blood flow. Much more creativity needed.

Reminds me of the old Tom Lehrer joke:
“…a story about a young necrophiliac who finally achieves his boyhood ambition by becoming coroner.
… The rest of you can look it up when you get home.”

A father takes his five year old to the high school principal and says that he’d like to enroll him. The principal says that little John is goign to have to prove he can handle the work. Principal writes an algebra problem and shows it to the lad. John answers it without using a pencil. He asks some history and political questions. John nails them all.
Turns to the father. “This last question is to see if he has the emotional maturity we expect of our students.
“Johnny, what’s a four letter word that ends in U-N-T and means a woman?”
“Aunt.”
“Congratulations. Johnny can come to high school.”
As they walk home, dad says to Johnny, “I’m so proud of you. I know I would have messed up that last question”

<googling furiously how much morgue work pays>
TwilitSky@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Have you smelled a body in decomposition before (basically all of them are in some stage of decomp)?
dandelion@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 weeks ago
well now I’m upset I haven’t smelled a body in decomposition before ☹️ (if there is a God, I hope he prints this off and confronts me with this when I die)
but I assume a morgue preserves the corpse well enough that I don’t think it will be too much of an issue
now that you say it, I have smelled decomposing animal bodies before many times - but maybe not a human corpse 🤔
In the early stages there are a lot of fecal smells.
I would be very interested in being a pathologist or dealing with corpses, I think I’m better suited to that work than the average person - however, a lot of that work involves court testimony and working with the government, and I’m just not interested in having a job where public testimony is a major part of it or where I’m involved in the “justice system” (mostly because of the corruption and the feeling that my job would put me in morally compromised positions, and I just couldn’t handle that).
