5) (Econ) labor** * *trabajo11 = employment, endeavour [endeavor, -USA], job, labour [labor, -USA], leg work, occupation, task, work, working environment, workload [work load], pursuit, workmanship, footwork, handwork, professional position, working practice, pursuit in life, handiwork, lifework, line of business, toil, industry.Ex: Under WOMEN -- EMPLOYMENT, for instance, are listed works on the health and safety hazards of employment, the wages of employment, the problems of mothers, married and/or single women and employment, and so on.
Ex: Eventually, it came to be recognized that the Classification Research Group's endeavours might be pertinent to the problem of alphabetical indexing.Ex: To ease the cataloguer's job and save him the trouble of counting characters, DOBIS/LIBIS uses a special function.Ex: An editor is a person who prepares for publication an item not his own and whose labour may be limited to the preparation of the item for the manufacturer.Ex: DOBIS/LIBIS may replace the typewriter, the catalog card, and much leg work, but it cannot replace the decision-making capabilities of the library staff.Ex: Headings such as SALESMEN AND SALESMANSHIP and FIREMEN, since they are assigned to works covering the activities of both men and women in these occupations, are not specific.Ex: Further, menu screens will be necessary until the user has specified the task that he wishes executed or the information that he wishes to retrieve sufficiently for execution or retrieval to be effected.Ex: The Classification Research Group (CRG) has been a major force in the development of classification theory, and has made a major contribution towards work on a new general classification scheme.Ex: This article examines the various features now available on copiers and comments on the usefulness in a working environment.Ex: Each of these changes, if we were to deal with them in an adequate manner, create severe workload problems for the cataloging department.Ex: What is more arguable is whether or not it is a bibliographical pursuit at all since it bears little relationship to the physical nature of the book.Ex: William R Lethaby, the architect who had Westminster Abbey in his charge for over twenty years, once said 'Art is thoughtful workmanship'.Ex: If we decide to take on making up a subject file there'd be a lot of footwork even if we use that list as a basis = Si decidimos aceptar crear un fichero ordenado por materias habría mucho trabajo incluso si usamos esta lista como base.Ex: The newspaper's suppression after the first issue was not, as some historians have declared, the handwork of Massachusetts' Puritan clergy = La supresión del periódico después de su primer número no fue, como algunos historiadores han declarado, por la intervención del clero puritano de Massachussetts.Ex: In virtually all of her professional positions she has been involved with the handling of documents.Ex: While many believe that print on paper will never die, new formats are already changing working practice in many spheres.Ex: People who are blind, regardless of their pursuit in life, will not have access to current information, books, learning, or education opportunities unless all libraries and blindness organizations agree to work together.Ex: Rather than bringing in butchers to do the handiwork of his dissections, Vesalius himself worked on the human cadavers and said that students of medicine should do the same.Ex: This is an eloquent, moving testament to the lifework of a major artist of unimpeachable technique and passion.Ex: The computer people are muscling in on our line of business and we can't stop them.Ex: Furthermore, the computer can be used, and is already being used, to eliminate drudgery, busywork, and useless toil in library systems.Ex: In fact, the terms of the contrast are highly ambivalent: order vs. anarchy, liberty vs. despotism, or industry vs. sloth, and also dissimulation vs. honesty.* acoso en el trabajo = workplace mobbing.* agenda de trabajo = work agenda.* agobiado de trabajo = up to + Posesivo + eyeballs in work.* ahorrar el trabajo

[expedición científica] expedition;una misión de la NASA a Marte a NASA mission to MarsMISIONES JESUÍTICASThe Jesuit missionaries working along the Paraná river (which today flows through Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay) set up self-sufficient communities for the Guarani Indians from 1607 onwards. The communities had their own militias and cavalry for self-defence, and Spanish settlers were forbidden access. The Jesuits allowed for the Indians' religious practices and beliefs in their teaching of Christianity, and the missions gave them protection from the slavery practised outside. It was, however, their very success which led to their downfall, as they came to be regarded as a rival by the cities of Buenos Aires and Asunción. The missions were finally closed in 1767, leaving over 100,000 Indians to their fate. This Jesuit utopia in the jungle was undoubtedly a paternalistic affair, but it has acquired an almost mythical status with the passing years. A recent manifestation of this is the 1986 film “The Mission”.* * *f mission* * ** * *misión n mission -
