      Yes, because it’s already dead and in the process of decaying, which promotes the growth of bacteria using it as a food source.

              We’re people. The job doesn’t matter, we’re still people. If the jobs switch roles, we’ll still be people. Whatever job it may be, people are the ones doing them.
