I work with the dead, but I am working for the living.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I work to stay alive.
When I'm dead, I wanna leave a body of work, like authors or great painters do.
I don't conduct my career for when I'm dead and people say nice things about me. I conduct my career for the here and now, and what excites me, and what interests me.
I used to work the graveyard shift.
I'm working myself to death.
I spend a lot of my time talking to the dead, but since I get paid for it, no one thinks I'm mad.
I don't just talk to the dead.
Working is living to me.
The dead govern the living.
I do some of my best work when I'm dead.
