Any Info on Batesville Casket Company?

With funeral costs being quite excessive I've read most turn to cremation. This could be a dead end job. Plus they have competition.

 

JM Swank is a company you might want to look into. I think they're in greenwood. Private fleet food ingredient distribution company owned by brenntag

 

Depends where you end upon seniority board.

 

Many, MANY moons ago, I applied at a Batesville Casket in Milwaukee. This was before my trucking shenanigans, mid 70s, for a straight truck driver. I thought I had it in the bag, when the guy asked me to do a lie detector test. Way before drug tests. I said, sure, why not? Turns out, I FAILED the lie detector test and didn't get the job. No biggie, their loss, I figured, hopped in a semi, and the rest is history, WITHOUT stupid Batesville Casket. I never went back, but I always wondered what triggered the failure. I was a good boy, I think the boss had a nephew that needed a job,,
Far as a dead end job, that may be more true than we think. A neighbor takes her pastor to funerals, and noticed, he hadn't called her in a while. She said, he said nobody is doing funerals and caskets anymore. The cost is too much and has me thinking of "final expense" schtick so my kids aren't burdened with that. My religion forbids cremation, so something to think of.

 

Had a friend that worked there. He loved it. Dont remember why he left.

 

You know there is a good possibility you didn't fail per say. There is a reason they aren't used in employment any more. Polygraphs are unreliable at best. Even the inventor basically admitted it years later.

Employers aside, I would never take one for law enforcement. Simple reasoning really. I would have nothing to gain and everything to lose and cops would have everything to gain and nothing to lose.
