Just curious, im only a funeral attendant but even after working for 9 months here, I still cry so hard after work sometimes. Seeing bodies is okay, I feel bad but move on. Seeing families break down and scream? Yeah I have to excuse myself because I cant hold it together. After work today I sobbed on the way home. Some days are better than others but it gets really hard sometimes :(

Edit: im so sorry I made it sound like I cry everyday or every other day, maybe i sounded too dramatic haha😭 I love this job alot, i love helping families, and my dream career is to be an embalmer. Its more like once a month where I break down AFTER work because hearing the screams and stories that people talk about their loved one is what hits me the most, I think its so beautiful seeing and hearing how much people cared about one person and it breaks my heart hearing them and seeing them fall apart. Ive only had to excuse myself like three times because it was someone very young and my tears were about to burst out my eyeballs haha. My coworkers say ill get used it to it soon and my manager knows that I cry alot haha, she knows I just care toooooo much 😭

Im 23 F, I make $18 and hour but my hours fluctuate, I love my job because it's in the field of my future dream career. Im a funeral attendant and weekly my hours can be from 10-40 hours a week. I still live at home, im in college and I feel like everyone else is ahead of me and making more money. My goal in life is to have a home and a family but I feel like im not getting anywhere. Am I the only one? Any advice on how to get more ahead or is it just impossible due to the state of the world?

I bought two 3 day tickets for a convention but the person that I wanted to go with cant go all 3 days, can I have a friend come that one day, like switch to a different person??
