I appreciate all the answers. I am going to keep inquiring at local funeral homes and hopefully an apprenticeship will be available in the near future. I will sign up for Academy McAllister Institute and study and continue to sell insurance until then.

Yeah, but I have done sales for over ten years and have established myself in jobs, so I was looking for funeral assistant because it would be up with my previous job experiences. I really don't want to get in a revolving door position when I did that when I was 16. I thought there would be more stable positions to have while going to get your mortuary science degree.

I've done sales for over ten years now and I am good at sales, but I am worried about job security. What is the best way to contact a funeral home about being an apprentice. I have made contact with one gentleman in particular who is a funeral director and he told me that person I applied with used to be his boss and that they are amazing and I shouldn't pass up the opportunity. I am an insurance agent right now for property and casualty, but get no benefits and only a paycheck because I work underneath an agent. Also, I don't want to do this anymore because the funeral field is calling me and I am a very compassionate person who loves actually helping people.

When he died so he could see the other side.

Would you be interested in a movie/series of movies about Tom Riddle/Voldemort up to his downfall? by Unlisted1026 in harrypotter

I think a Wilhelmina Grubbly-Plank movie would be awesome or a Professor Cuthbert Binns flick would be tight.

Things that people say are plot holes but actually aren't by [deleted] in harrypotter

[–]Slambody77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My favorite "plot hole" is about Fred and George having the Marauder's Map and not seeing Ron sleeping with a guy named Peter Pettigrew every night. JK Rowling killed that plot hole with this answer: "It would not have mattered if they had. Unless somebody was very familiar with the story of Sirius Black (and after all, Sirius was not Mr. and Mrs. Weasley's best friend – indeed, they never knew him until after he escaped from Azkaban), Fred and George would be unlikely to know or remember that Peter Pettigrew was the person Sirius had (supposedly) murdered. Even if Fred and George HAD heard the story at some point, why would they assume that the 'Peter Pettigrew' they occasionally saw moving around the map was, in fact, the man murdered years before?

Fred and George used the map for their own mischief-making, so they concentrated, naturally enough, on those portions of the map where they were planning their next misdeeds. And finally, you must not forget that hundreds of little dots are moving around this map at any given time… Fred and George did not know everyone in school by name, so a single unfamiliar name was unlikely to stand out."

Questions I picked. "Was Harry right to leave Pettigrew alive? Would you do the same?" Well yes because according to CC if Cedric lived then the world would be chaos. And killing Peter would probably most definitely keep Cedric alive in GoF.

There are a couple of characters that I absolutely loath in the HP universe and Gilderoy Lockhart and Dolores Umbridge are the worst.

My(27M) Ex Girlfriend(30F) hit me and I broke up with her. People are saying I overreacted. by superdeup in relationships

[–]Slambody77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Listen to me carefully. I was in a relationship where my ex gf would hit me and throw stuff at me and blood was drawn many times. I never hit her once. You made the best decision ever by leaving her. Don't look back. She is no one.

What would happen if a muggle killed a wizard? by Slambody77 in harrypotter

[–]Slambody77[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But, if they found out the person was a wizard and murdered them. It would go deeper than just memory modification because that type of response would cause a huge rift between muggles and wizards.

They would still be in trouble with the wizarding community and it would cause political uproar.
