Because in high school, my grandmother passed away, and at the farewell ceremony, my mother cried very sadly, and her emotions were almost out of control. The emcee sister at that time was very gentle, she went well to calm my mother's emotions, and the picture at that time also made me feel very moved. When I was filling out the college entrance examination, I thought of being a person who healed my pain with tenderness.
【Commentary】The student named Wen Lina, who is telling reporters how he entered the funeral industry, is from Changsha Civil Affairs Vocational and Technical College majoring in modern funeral technology and management. She told reporters that through three years of study and practice, she feels that her profession has the importance of letting the deceased rest in peace and the living feel at ease, and she has fallen deeply in love with this job and will firmly continue in the funeral industry in the future.

Funeral writing is also elegiac writing, which means not only writing elegy, but also learning some sacrificial writing. In the case of sacrifices, there are many types of them, and in fact, it requires a very deep literary foundation, you need to quote scriptures, and it must be handy, and there must be rhyme. We will also learn funeral culture, that is, learn the development history of funeral in China in the past 5000,<> years.
【Commentary】Li Jiaheng from Hebei is Wang Wenluo's classmate, and he came here for professional study with the idea of making a contribution to the funeral industry in his hometown. He introduced that in addition to attending classes at school, students in the class will use their holidays to go to funeral homes and cemeteries for internships.

I have found that the funeral profession is more important than how we deal with the dead. First of all, the most important thing is to learn to respect, respect the dead, respect the living, no matter what state they come to us, we must treat them with equality and compassion. Then followed by professional ability, and finally there must be empathy, and we must do our best to comfort them so that they can really face the matter of death.
In this regard, Tan Zejing, dean of the Funeral College of Changsha Civil Affairs Vocational and Technical College, said that in recent years, the concept of ecological burial has gradually entered the hearts of the people, making the memory of relatives more warm, and many students are learning funeral professions with the support of parents, but the shortage of professional talents is still very large and cannot meet the market demand.

We (employment rate) is 100%, that is, students in our major, a person may have to correspond to a dozen or twenty units, so he has a lot of room for this choice. Many of these people say that our industry is a profiteering industry, but this is not the case, we have been regulating this industry from the central to the local government in recent years, so our industry is quite standardized. The salary is only said that because of the particularity of the industry, the salary will be slightly higher than other local positions, but it does not mean that it is ridiculously high.
