10 Reasons you should Marry a Funeral Director

10 Reasons you should Marry a Funeral Director

1. They are very Romantic:

   As a funeral director you are constantly talking to couples who were married for 50 or 60 years therefore funeral directors have that goal in mind each day and want to keep life romantic.

2. Funeral Directors can deal with most any smell so diapers are a breeze.

Funeral Directors encounter odd to terrible smells each and every day. It's all part of the job when you work with deceased people.

3. You will often get fresh flowers "Just Because" or because they were left over from a service and the family didn't want the.

Often times when family members come from out of town they can't or don't want to transport all the flowers home so funeral directors are often gifted arrangements to take home to their spouses.

4. Funeral directors have great senses of Humor.

When working in a job full of Mourning and sadness almost all funeral directors have a great sense of humor which helps them cope with the need to be serious and composed while working with mourning families.

5. Funerals almost always have fun hobbies.

I collect hearses, skulls and Dia de los Muertos paraphernalia. I also know many funeral directors that collect pieces of art, books, coins or all sorts of things.

6. Funeral Directors are calm during hectic circumstances.

Grief often brings the worst out of people so funeral directors often train themselves to remain composed and calm during most every situation.

7. Funeral Directors are often quite artistic.

Part of the Funerary schooling includes restorative arts and other art classes. This means funeral directors are trained to sculpt faces and other body parts by using measurements and a photo. Some funeral directors are better at this than others. I know some directors that are very talented artists, photographers, painters and sketch artists too.

8. Funeral Directors learn to love a wide variety of Music.

As a funeral director you learn to love music from many genres, time periods and styles because you are working from people from every walk of life and playing music for their services. This means you can choose the music and they will probably be ok with your choice.

9. Funeral Directors train themselves to wake up to certain ringtones or sounds.

Because Funeral Directors are on-call at night they train themselves take up to certain ringtones or sounds in case there is a death during the night. This means if you need them to wake up during the night for any reason all you have to do is call or text them.

10. Last but not least Funeral Directors are empathetic.

When you work with mourning families day in and day out you need to have some empathy. this means funeral directors have a soft spot and will often be more empathetic than other men, and will take care of you when you need help or aren't feeling well.
