Being deceased is an occupation

A grave situation, you could say!

You could lose this position by sleeping on the job or lying but it's ideal for resting actors.

Too true Phoenix, the place is like a ghost-town.

You are all dead right.

You should have known*Mini*, after all they do run the whole business with a skeleton staff.

Should have read the contract better. It said inter not intern!

No chance of making a living in this job...

I don't think much of the promotion prospects, I mean how can you climb the corporate ladder when there's not going to be any movement at the top??

Or possibly the boss from hell?

A truly heavenly job... at last!

Anyone see Radio Times? - Billy Connolly is to do a series about death, looking into different practices around it. Apparently it is going to be full of humour (surprise, surprise). It seems that one funeral director had, amongst his accoutrements for preparing a corpse for viewing, a bottle of shampoo for "dull lifeless hair" - oh dear.

Not a ghost of a chance of getting sacked

The ultimate boss

It's great, isn't it, icy? Best of gransnet

These are killing me.

Long holidays but nowhere to go

It's a dying trade...

Not much hope of promotion though.

A quiet disposition and very black humour are essential for this job.

Bit of a dead-end job...

Good bonus every Spring! You help things to grow.

People would die for that occupation!

The ultimate internship?

Zero hours contract, of course...

But at least you have a roof over your head
