Abstract:
It has been argued in this journal that sociologists can make an important contribution to the understanding of why workers report feeling satisfied with their work, particularly where job quality is poor. Utilising a mixed method approach, this article explores how employees derive satisfaction from dirty work. The term ‘dirty work’ refers to tasks and occupations that are perceived as disgusting, distasteful or degrading. The research was conducted among workers specialising in the cleaning of abandoned social or public housing apartments in high crime areas in the UK and the USA. The study

Abstract:
Issues of ethnic identity, gender and politics intersect for two generations of Portuguese women in Toronto. In this article I use a ’social reproduction’ approach to analyze the meaning of exploitation for these women. The co-existence of both resistance to the dominant hegemonic culture and appropriation of nativistic notions of progress among the two generations of women are examined. The use of the words ’clean’ and ’dirty’ as they pertain to wage work and issues of status and ethnic identity are explored.

Abstract:
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is one of the greatest public health concerns and is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the United States and worldwide. CVD is a broad yet complex term referring to numerous heart and vascular conditions, all with varying pathologies. Macrophages are one of the key factors in the development of these conditions. Macrophages play diverse roles in the maintenance of cardiovascular homeostasis, and an imbalance of these mechanisms contributes to the development of CVD. In the current review, we provide an in-depth analysis of the diversity of macrophages

This article draws on Bill Brown's ‘Thing Theory’ alongside more recent theoretical approaches to ‘things’ in order to investigate the peculiar depictions of filthy bedroom items that appear in Samuel Beckett's early works for screen. Focusing predominantly on the teleplay Eh Joe, the article discusses the manner in which Beckett's evocations of physical dirtiness persistently problematise and abstract the conventional functionality of everyday domestic objects in his work, not only causing ordinary items to seem less familiar and increasingly ambiguous, but also impacting upon the way that ch

Abstract:
How do caseworkers do the dirty work of welfare reform? I examine this question in a case study of a county welfare office in rural North Carolina. Historically welfare has faced threats to its survival. To survive, welfare to work agencies need to appear effective to tax payers, state and federal politicians, and local communities. Caseworkers do the daily work to make this possible, but to do this work they have to convince themselves first. Caseworkers take the goals and rules given to them by federal, state, and county officials and they embrace and enforce these rules, but only sometimes.

Chapter 7 argues that drones will enable international organizations, NGOs, and advocacy groups to monitor human rights abuses, deliver relief, and pressure governments for change. Small surveillance drones are ideally suited for taking on the “dull, dirty, and dangerous” jobs that are needed in these situations. In the future, drones will be able to transport and drop food and medicine in response to crises in places where humanitarian organizations are reluctant to send their own personnel. Drones will ultimately give these actors another tool with which they can monitor events on the ground

However, there are criticisms of the performance of green buildings on account of accidents on sites, poor workmanship, and project delays.

Integrating a DAS into surgical instrument reprocessing, where instrument-specific and complex manual tasks need to be performed strictly according to the manufacturer's instructions, can be advantageous.

Conventionally, in this phase, a series of surfactant and solvent pill is circulated downhole to "clean" the well. Poor job execution at this stage usually will result to tremendous amount of time to clean out the well or worst leaving the well with a "dirty" brine. Eventually this will lead to impairment in the well productivity. The Operator experienced strings of non-performance in their WBCU operation.
