Back in Black

I'm back!  Thanks for your patience, I hope to restart what I started.  That means more about dead people.

A lot has happened since last month.  I'm still doing the same line of work but for a different company now.  Much better working environment at the new mortuary;  better equipment, better morale, just better all around.  Not that I regret the old place, but now that I can compare, yeah, that old place sucked.  Especially the owner, who is so consumed by greed he can't see straight.  Seeing the way he runs things employee turnover will always be high.

At the new place, I'm still doing the same job, removing dead people from homes, hospitals and MEO.  No lengthy crematory driving though, the crematory picks up the bodies.  It's a bigger facility with more bodies in the cooler.  The best part is that the people I work with are infinitely better than the old place.  I mean, my co-workers are actually a cooperative bunch, helping each other whenever possible and actually have manners.  I like that.

Today I removed a couple of bodies from a nursing home and a hospital.  Nothing new.  Management likes the fact that I know where all the places are.  I like the fact that the vans and gurneys are in great condition.  Air conditioning works just fine in the vans here.  I even did a two-man on-call run right after my shift, an old lady who died sitting in her Lay-Z-Boy.  Just like that man who died on his couch, we slid the gurney under her legs and dragged her onto it, nice and simple.

More to come...
