美國評出"最讓人擔驚受怕"的15種工作
10. Cemetery Worker

Salary: $42,250

墓地工人

工資:42,250美元/年

      Training: There is no formal training required, although the VA's National Cemetery Administration (NCA) Training Center offers instruction and professional development to those who manage and operate the country's 131 veterans' cemeteries and the Arlington National Cemetery.

      "What is he that builds stronger than either the mason, the shipwright, or the carpenter? ... And when you are asked this question next, say 'A grave-maker.' The houses that he makes last till doomsday."These are the words of a gravedigger in "Hamlet," one of the more famous cemetery workers of all time. But not the most. That honor would probably go to Abraham Lincoln, who worked for a time in an Indiana churchyard, as did Rod Stewart, Joe Strummer of The Clash and Major League Baseball player Dave Vanian. While preparing man's final resting place is now seen as a somewhat noble job, in pagan times the "vespillones" were considered unclean. Manhandling corpses does, after all, have a high heebie-jeebie factor.

      培訓要求:雖然沒有正規(guī)的培訓要求,但是對于那些在GJ131老兵公墓和阿林頓GJ公墓進行工作和管理的人員,弗吉尼亞州的GJ公墓管理局(NCA)培訓中心提供實踐課程和專業(yè)培訓。

      “能比石匠、船匠和木匠建造出更堅固的建筑的人,他是誰?當有人問你這個問題時,你會馬上說‘建墓人’,他所建造的房子能夠撐到世界末日。”這是來自《哈姆雷特》里盜墓者的話,其中一個一直以來是非常著名的墓地工作者之一,但他并不是最出名的。這個榮譽應該授給給亞伯拉罕·林肯,他在印地安那州的教堂墓地工作過一段時間,洛史都華(Rod Stewart)、撞擊樂隊(the clash)的喬·斯特拉默爾(Joe Strummer)和美國職業(yè)棒球大聯(lián)盟的棒球手戴夫·凡尼都曾在墓地工作過。“為人類準備最后的寓所”,現在或多或少被認為是一種高尚的工作,在異教徒時代,“葬禮承辦人”被認為是不潔凈的。畢竟,人工處理尸體的總會讓人有心慌慌的感覺。
