When going to work is more than a job in RTD’s professions documentaries

Most people work to live, but some live to work. Those who live to work find happiness and contentment in their chosen profession. There’s no telling what someone will find to be a rewarding career. In Iraq, the job of gravedigger at the country’s largest cemetery is a family business, with sons following in their fathers’ footsteps. In Japan, it is lack of family that has created a new profession of ‘kodokushi’, cleaners who tidy up after a senior dies alone. These and many more unusual jobs are examined in RTD’s professions documentaries.
