That's a very interesting question. When I was in college majoring in business, I took an anatomy and physiology class just for my own curiousity. Everyone was surprised because the rest in class were medical or nursing students. So I have a rather unique perspective of seeing things from both sides of the fence. Now if you think about it, those involved in the funeral profession are dealing with dead bodies. Some of which may not be in the "best shape." Now the last thing a grieving family wants to see is a body that's in terrible shape and perhaps sickening to look at. Would that help to ease their pain of loosing a loved one? No! So part of what goes on Behind the Scenes is the "cleaning-up" of a body to make it look for realistic and presentable. So when the family is viewing the body, they're not horrified and experiencing even more grief then they are already. A knowledge of anatomy and physiology will help a funeral parlor "improve" problem areas. For example, if someone was shot in the chest and taken to the emergency room, doctors may have cut open the chest, had tubes sticking out, etc. All this wouldn't make a body look very nice and no grieving family member would want to see this! So the funeral home would somehow need to "fix and improve" this so the person wouldn't look that bad or horrifying. To do this, you'd need to know something about body parts and anatomy. Plus the embalming process isn't simply cut a hole and drain out all the blood. So there's some chemistry involved, proper handling of bodily fluids, etc. So basic anatomy and physiology is very relevant!
Hi there. I haven't found any solid statistics, but an article that I recently read said that in the UK funeral directors earn from £25,000-£30,000. If you own the funeral home or work in a large funeral home with management responsibilities you can earn more in the profession.
. The salary for funeral director really depends on the amount of experience and the position held. Salaries in this profession start around $24,000 a year and go up to about $60,000. In a large funeral home, you may make more if you hold the position of general manager or branch manager.

The lesson of the story "Big Joe's Funeral" is that sometimes it takes an event like a funeral to bring people together and make them appreciate the relationships they have. It highlights the importance of community, forgiveness, and the impact one person can have on the lives of many.
Personally from experience...it's REALLY scary. I HATE it. If I got paid a million dollors to do it again...I wouldn'* * Only certain persons can perform tasks that are necessary in the profession of a funeral director, embalmist and so forth. These will generally be people who are sensitive and caring and have a genuine wish to help others in their time of sorrow. Most funeral directors are well educated/informed in ethnic, religious and psychological matters and most have a family background in the profession. Minors would not be allowed to serve in such a capacity. There is no reason one should associate fear with the profession unless one chooses to believe the nonsense that is portrayed in tasteless and senseless movies and televisions shows.
The noun 'undertakings', the plural form of the singular noun 'undertaking' is an abstract noun; a word for a task, venture, or enterprise; a word for the profession or duties of a funeral director; a word for a concept.
Hi there. Being a funeral director is a lot of work and it really takes a certain type of person do a good job in the profession. The downfall of being a funeral director is that the hours are unpredicted. You basically are on call and required to respond whenever you are needed. Some people find it creepy to work with deceased people and some don't like working with bereaved families, but other than that it is an excellent career choice.
