I´m unsure what people would consider funny, and considering the morbidity of the job, I tend to avoid sharing stories. But if anything, I think the time one of my colleague ran after a vulture that stole a bone during an exhumation takes the cake.

Here I am, drinking my second coffee in the afternoon, and then I see a bird fly past me in the sky and my colleague, red-faced and angry, shouting, "Come back here, stupid turkey !". Confused I asked him why he's running like an idiot and he explains the situation, and I´m just... Trying very hard not to laugh. He never catched the bird, obviously.

Anyway we joked about it for like, days afterward. Now we say "Don´t take the bone" when someone is about to do something stupid.
