My friend from the mortuary informed me of a grisly little task that is part of his job description: He has to perform little operations on some of the corpses before he puts them into the crematorium.
“Yech!” I said with great disgust. “Why do you have to do that?”
“I have to remove pacemakers and defribulators from the bodies before they go into the oven or else they will explode inside their chests…” he answered matter-of-factly.
“Do you get paid extra for that?”
“Nope.”
