Probably a wet blanket here but make sure you have adequate public liability cover......vital when dealing with the public at large!

If they're "at large", they won't be there anyway

Will I learn much on the job?

If half of the hospitals I've worked in are anything to go by.................

........you'll learn of the panic and disruption caused when the asbestos in the fire door is hacked at by someone from maintenance...................

Traditionally joiners actually did build coffins. Been there! Until 20 years ago we still had a fairly local firm who advertised themselves as "joiners and undertakers" - the two trades went together. I don't think a maintenance bod would be asked to do that, though (make coffins OR do undertaking)

My old gaffer actually used to have his own coffin stood at the back of the workshop, covered with a tarpaulin...
