Man, those morgue guys get all the good perks. And so what if they refer them to some undertaker friend of theirs, the corpse doesn't know what the hell is going on.

I guess it's back to just stealing their jewelry and gold fillings mate.

sometimes I wonder about people. Ok, why should it be inappropreate for the undertakers to recommend a Morgue? When you go to the doctor, don't you get a referal to a specialist? I guess its due to the kickbacks... Hey, Bob, recomend me to your "customers" and I'll pay you... wait... isn't that advertisment?!?

Lets go back to the good old fashion way of giving bribes of money.

My girlfriends father is the police chaplin for a large county. He'll tell you that this happens every day and it disgusts him to no end.

Picture this: Your father has just died unexpectedly from a fall in the middle of the night. You wake up to find his lifeless body in your hallway. You call the police, and within the hour, you have an undertaker at your door telling you that you don't love your father at all if you don't "have him embalmbed immediately at the LOW LOW PRICES OF DISCOUNT HARRY'S MORGUE! That's right little Timmy, Your father never looked this good in his life, so why not have him look this good now that he's kicked the bucket."

To tell you the truth, it kinda disgusts me. BTW: the chaplin pulls the family away from them as soon as he sees the sales pitch come out.

"If you have enjoyed this funeral, why not recommend us to a friend?"

"Join our Frequent Buryer Program for valuable discounts!"

they dont need alcohol, the organs are preserved in jars full of alcohol.

at this point some of the more wussies of you would probly say... "ewww", but if a man works in a place like this its very hard to gross him out
 
2002-08-26 02:38:49 PM
Not saying "ewww", but, well, you know.
 
2002-08-26 06:05:31 PM
Don't call these guys!

DISCOUNT CASKETS

GrassHopper, unless your dad wears a bowler and a short black moustache you should probably use the word 'chaplain'.
