Commissions Closing in April
4 years ago
General
Hello all!
As some of you may know, I am currently in my last semester of mortuary school! It's been a rough journey, especially since I'm doing the dual-degree program, but I'm happy to have the end in sight! However, as the semester nears the end, I am very close to doing my clinicals and practicum, which require me to perform eleven cases and arrange a full funeral service. This, and my RA lab, all takes place in April and has been estimated to be around three weeks long. Because of that, I will be closing commissions for the entire month and likely into May, as I will be taking my licensure exam.
Those that follow me on Twitter will know that I recently got recommended and interviewed for an apprenticeship in my hometown! They offered me the position and, once I check about benefits for going full-time, I plan to formally accept the job. So far it seems like it will not be the typical on-call/working late nights (the home actually pays a removal service, so a lot of the rougher parts of the job are already taken care of with this home) and I anticipate being able to open commissions again once I get settled in.
So we are looking at commissions being closed potentially for around two months starting in April. Should the job work out, I expect to close commissions around the holidays and for a month at a time fall-spring (December and January are very busy at the home I've been told).
Currently, I do not anticipate raising prices during the hiatus like I have in the past. I am currently satisfied with my pricing and plan for it to stay the same for the year.
So! That being said! This is the last month to get a commission from me likely until summer. I will stop accepting commissions likely in the last week of March. Just wanted to keep everyone updated!
