A few days ago, I stumbled upon a short video about morticians that made me pay attention to the industry, in which a mortician stood at the door of a movie theater holding a sign that read, "Can you hug or shake hands with me?", hoping to get a hug and affirmation from others.
People came and went in the movie theater, some people stopped and stayed, some people ignored it, but the same thing is that everyone did not come forward to communicate with each other. Even if some people are driven by curiosity to come forward and watch, after seeing the three words "entering the mortician", they can't avoid it, pull out their legs and leave.
People's innate prejudices and fears of "death" related things make everyone jealous of this industry.
Searching online for the recruitment salary of "funeral home" related positions, the monthly salary ranges from 24000-48000, which can be said to be very high. Many people see the rapid tongue and performance of the rush, but in fact, the relevant positions have been in a difficult situation to recruit.
Gradually, with the development of society, the industry of "mortician" has also begun to enter the public eye, under the irresponsible passages on the Internet and people's inertial thinking, most people naturally think that "mortician" is also a high-paying industry.
But is this really the case?
Today, we take you to a real understanding of the industry through the real situation of a post-90s female mortician.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="21" >01 What is a "mortician"? </h1>
The mortician, also known as the funeral master, restores the state before death for the deceased, repairs the face and body, and is actually a makeup artist and a worker who cleans up the remains.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="34" >02 What is the job of the "mortician"? </h1>
Generally speaking, the work content of the "mortician" mainly includes 3 items, namely:
Clean up the corpse: wash the surface with bactericidal soap to remove stains;
Repair of the face and limbs: forensic anatomical traces and other serious trauma recovery, head and face trauma recovery including facial collapse Defects External trauma repair and even reshaping of the head, facial makeup;
Dress up: Trim your beard and nails, straighten your hair, and change into appropriate clothing.
Because of the special nature of the work, it often requires 24 hours on standby, and the work pressure is greater.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="35" >03 The true income of the "mortician"</h1>
Xiao Wei is a post-90s "mortician".
In high school, she was influenced by the novel "Forensic Qin Ming" and has always aspired to become a forensic doctor. When I first told my family about studying medicine, everyone was very supportive, but after learning that it was forensics, my father, who had a strong attitude, directly changed Xiao Wei's profession and changed to accounting. After his wishes were shattered, Xiao Wei could only choose to compromise.
Later, during college, he and his roommate watched a movie called "Entering the Mortician", and Xiao Wei's heart began to beat again.
"The last journey of life should be completed with dignity and dignity, and the responsibility and mission of the mortician is very important."
A strong sense of mission allowed Xiao Wei to go to a school in Beijing after graduation to learn modern funeral technology and management, and after completing his studies, he successfully embarked on the road of "entering the mortician".
Her daily job is to restore the "pre-living state" of the deceased, and when she encounters some burns, car accidents, facial mutilations, and missing skin tissue, she will work sleeplessly for more than ten hours.
At this time, some people will definitely question that a little girl, doing such a "terrible" job, but also facing external pressure, the embarrassment of not being able to find a partner, must be for money.
But in fact, the income of the mortician is far less than people think.
Morticians are divided into career and non-career divisions, and the income level also varies according to the average income of the local area.
Generally speaking, the income after the formal signing of the contract is only 3000-4500, and the practitioners with the first-line anti-corrosion and plastic surgery work are generally about 5000-6000, and the management level is slightly higher, but it will not exceed 10,000, and it is not as high as everyone imagines.
"In a lifetime, people always have to complete some of their own missions."
In Xiao Wei's eyes, her mission is to make everyone who leaves can be decent.
After entering the industry, she was under tremendous pressure.
Father's "Don't tell your relatives what kind of work you do, I can't afford to lose that person"
Boyfriend's "I'm soundproof at the thought of you holding my hand and touching someone else";
Girlfriend's "My husband is more taboo about this, wedding you don't come".
If she is a normal person, in the face of the support of her relatives and friends, it is easy to give up, but she has chosen to stick to and persevere, because she firmly believes that one day, people will throw out prejudices against this industry.
Xiao Wei said she had received a task to repair the body of a fire fighter.
The firefighter fighter who died in the line of duty was only 19 years old, because the fire was burned beyond recognition, and the head was also severely dented by the falling object, when the mother of the deceased was devastated when she saw the body of her son.
Xiao Wei took over the repair work, and finally after more than 8 hours of busyness, he reconstructed the remains of the deceased. The family of the deceased, filled with tears, bowed deeply to Xiao Wei before leaving.
At that time, Xiao Wei felt that her persistence all along had a meaning, and she felt honored for herself.
"Death is a door, it is not to end, but to transcend, to embark on a new journey."
At present, the mortician is still a profession that is looked down upon, and will suffer a lot of misunderstandings and misinterpretations, feeling that the other party is not clean, and is unwilling to deal with it.
But there are still a small number of people who are willing to stick to positions that are not highly paid, and endure the loneliness of being excluded and criticized.
Their long-cherished wish is very simple, that is, to let everyone die "decently" in the end and leave a good impression on their families.
Hopefully, after reading this article, you can throw away a little prejudice, I know it's difficult, but as long as one person takes a small step, this article is meaningful.
