All I’m seeing is a well paying job with good customers
Also?
MANY religions worldwide would consider this a solemn and respected post of work. Every form of paganism I have personally run across would say you’re doing an important duty. In Judaism, we’d say you’re fulfilling a Mitzvah by respecting the dead and honoring their memories.
If you go in with good intentions, any spirits still hanging around WILL NOT HURT YOU. Just show them respect.
Also seriously that’s nearly $17k a MONTH. I’ve had jobs where I didn’t earn that in a YEAR.
Even if those ghosts ain’t friendly, I am full-on taking that job. $200k a year. $200k a fuckin year. No retail, no food service, no manager hovering and riding my ass, no annoying coworkers? I’ll deal with the ghosts.
i’d take ghosts over people any day <3
Fresh air, no sitting in an office, no customer service, just me and a bunch of gravestones and maybe Maria from three graves down having a hissy? For that money, what’s not to like?
Plus like, what ghost is gonna decide ‘yes today I will take horrible vengeance on the person who quietly and respectfully keeps the plants tended and the headstones clean’. Whoever they’re gonna fuck with, it’s not gonna be me.
Fr tho, since when have you ever heard of the graveyard keeper being the one haunted? It’s always the dumbass who doesn’t listen to their advice that gets got.

Every time this post goes past, I’m all in the yes-please column. In high school, our (tiny rural) school gave the duties of graveyard clean up to our senior class. It started right after the previous senior class graduated until we were the ones passing the rake to the next class. This was back when we raised money for a senior trip together. Did I mention it was a tiny town? We’re talking 15-20 kids, max.
That place was the most peaceful place in town. We weren’t in charge of it, just the mowing/clean up crew. But we all took our turn and I think we’re better for it. Definitely less superstitious.
I don’t know how people are getting 200k/year. Full-time work usually cashes out to about 2k hours a year, so that’d be 160k before taxes.
Still pretty good pay, though.
well the original challenge specifies a seven-hour night shift but doesn’t state a number of nights per week and the 200k figure appears to be based on a 7-day week
