What are the larger, moral implications about paid work raised in the two texts?

This exam is based Jill Lepore’s “What’s Wrong with the Way We Work” and Eyal Press’s “America Runs on ‘Dirty Work’ and Moral Inequality.”
Both essays offer perspectives on the uses of and views of paid work
in contemporary society.
Please write a unified essay that compares and contrasts what each writer is saying
about paid work in contemporary society. What conclusions do the authors draw about
who does what kind of work and how we, as a society, value work both in the present-day
and in the past? What are the larger, moral implications about paid work raised in the two
texts? How are the texts asking us to reconsider our own views of work? Be sure your thesis
statement includes the main similarities and/ or differences between the two texts, and why
those similarities and/or differences are important.
Please be specific in your answer, drawing on the texts to support your assertions.
You should use relevant quotes from the texts to strengthen your arguments and include
citations.
The main focus of your essay must be the two texts.
