Women bored with their jobs and wanting to start an exciting new career can become a professional mourner. The average pay for a mourner that attends a religious service and cemetery is five hundred dollars. One of the requirements is that you must dress appropriately, which means a black dress and hat with a large brim. Your shoes must be shined and you should have a large supply of handkerchiefs. A black umbrella without holes is a must for rainy days at the cemetery. Also a car is needed because cemeteries are located in the most remote places. If you have to travel a long distance the funeral director will compensate you.
The ability To cry on command is a must. A handkerchief should always be held against your cheek and the tears must never stop flowing. Banging on your chest with both hands is a crowd pleaser. Wailing while pulling your hair out and falling to the ground will add needed drama to people that shows little remorse for the departed. The family will then show you their love and deepest respect, but you must have the right answers to give them when asked who you are.
The best way to get the job as a professional mourner is by calling up funeral parlors and telling the directors that you are available. They are always looking for a talented woman that could highlight the funeral services by a wild performance. Remember there are many other women that also want the job, so at the interview show the director your best stuff. If your performance is good he will take down your telephone number and you can expect to be called at the next funeral.
Some professional mourners are so talented that they make as much as two hundred thousand dollars a year. They even travel by plane to attend the funeral of a wealthy person or celebrity. One famous mourner that attended the funeral of Marilyn Monroe was paid fifty thousand dollar. She actually tore her hair out and banged her head on the ground until she bled.
If you want extra work, you will find it in the obituary column. Somebody is always dying and another persons misfortune can be your gain. Pick up the phone, call the funeral parlor and tell the director who you are and what you charge. He will be anxious to have you there. No funeral director wants a crowd of happy people, and that is why the professional mourner will always be needed.
