Imperial industries

Imperial industries. The shittiest place to work. Your boss is probably high, or still staggering from his night out at the bar. If you work here you are probably an alcoholic. People go here when there is no other option. This place is a dump. You won't make a living working here. You're probably a scum. This place sucks. Full of shitty welders, drug dealers and felons.
Congratulations! You got a job at imperial industries, you're going nowhere in life!

Industrial Revolution

The mistake of man kind. One which brought us away from true “Ooga-booga” to “Ahem actually…”
The Industrial Revolution was truly a mistake for human kind.

Fauji Industrial Complex (FIC)

The Fauji Industrial Complex (FIC) refers to the Pakistan military’s expansive and controversial business empire, encompassing industries such as real estate, manufacturing, and energy. Critics argue this vast commercial network blurs the line between military and civilian spheres, concentrating economic power within the military, reducing transparency, and undermining democratic governance by allowing the military to exert substantial influence over Pakistan’s economy and policies.
Many believe the Fauji Industrial Complex (FIC) distorts Pakistan’s economy by allowing the military to control major industries, limiting fair competition and civilian oversight.

Grief/tragedy/sympathy/hope industry

A cynical industry where you hear the same kinds of stories and lines over and over to the point that it's a joke that isn't funny (the false hope and optimism sky is going to fall again tomorrow industry).
Person that survived storm- As long as nobody gets hurt, I don't care if I lose everything else.

Grief/tragedy/sympathy/hope industry Reporter- That sounds convincing.

5 years later after recovering from loss of loved one the person gets to thinking and it hits them- As horrible as it makes me sound, too horrible to put on TV, though nothing will hit as hard as me losing a loved one or an animal, I really do miss that couch and TV, even if I got another one. It sounds inhuman of me, and yet deep down anyone else would miss their shit at times if they lost it, even if they didn't tell anyone that they did. If they didn't miss their shit, they wouldn't get a house to put it in, but if they did get a house and wouldn't miss their shit, they'd live in an empty house, since nothing would be sacred there. If people are being honest with themselves and true to life, they also miss material things even if they miss the living things more.

Funeral Industry

An Industry taking care in difficult times of family lives. Working in the industry is difficult and deserves a degree of respect.

However, a lot of funeral homes are owned by large business corporations. These businesses aim to efficiently make money.

Functions and factors that help generate revenue include:

- A lack of information on how much funerals should cost, and what rights you have as a consumer.

- Selling preneed. This may be focused towards being sold to the elderly. Preneed may contain fine text designed to obligate ones family to pay specifically for the agreed upon services with possible limited flexibility, thus secure future revenue for the home.
- Casket rooms can be designed in such a way as to force families to view expensive, "good looking" or "fitting" caskets as opposed to more affordable, but less impressive ones, often in less desirable colors as to influence more desirable casket choices.

- Bundling services that make consumers feel like they are saving more by buying more.

- Subtle gestures such as saying (deceased's name) deserves more (perhaps a grander service or better casket or burial).

- Also note the significant psychological state of the consumer, who may be dealing with unbearabke grief.

See the 1978 FTC report on funeral homes, the research done by the funeral consumers alliance, and other resources and articles done on your local death industry. Of course, not every home is coporate or "greedy".
Guy1: Man, that funeral cost us a lot, hopefully we'll pay it off next year.

Guy2: Honestly, I wish we knew about how the funeral industry worked before we got into all this...
