Crime Scene Cleaners
Economic enhancement drives most if not all crime scene cleaners. Internally, crime scene cleaners come to this janitorial niche cleaning in need of work. Some come to crime scene cleanup work out of a dare. Some come into this work to learn how to start their own company. Like carpet cleaners, this last group's members drive grows from economic pressures and a desire to own their own company. Since the early days of the United States, a self-employed man rose in social status. Few people heard of self-employed women. Some people come to crime scene cleanup on a dare. An immature act, an immature comment reflecting bravado, machismo, leads them to blood cleanup. Although odd, this same process occurs often among young men. They enter other occupations in this same mode of behavior. Morticians, body movers, paratroopers, Navy Seals, marines, sky-high window washers do the same.
Most noteworthy, we find government employees, civil servants, working as crime scene cleaners. Newspapers, magazine, and even the Internet tells about these entrepreneurs. In their work as police officers, fire fighters, para-medics, coroner employees, public guardian employees, they moonlight as crime scene cleaners. These civil servants believe that their services bestow a special honor upon them. They believe that they're skills, abilities, and knowledge cannot be matched. Therefore, they hog crime scene cleanup work for their own crime scene cleanup companies. And some do own "companies," in the plural. More than one crime scene cleanup company to refer families offers an appearance of objectivity on their part. So they hand out three telephone numbers. It happens that these telephone numbers lead to the same owner's government monopoly over death cleanup. Generally, younger white males gravitate to crime scene cleanup work. There's much more in this statement than readers might suspects. Optimistic people will think young, white crime scene cleaners come to dominate the crimes scene cleanup companies. Employment rosters prove this observation. Pessimists will figure Jim Crow does the hiring for crime scene cleanup companies. Skeptics will surmise something else, something more devious goes on. Readers might say, "Something more devious than Jim Crow?". Let's do it by the numbers, since readers of my other writing efforts know what's coming. We must first ask, "Who hires crime scene cleaners"?.
Crime scene cleaners from the number 1 group number in the minority. If white males, their employer also owns a water damage and restoration company. Most probably, a sewage cleanup add-on helps cover their costs. These crime scene cleaners, then, earn their livings by learning a performing or janitorial sanitization skills, knowledge, and abilities. They may know something about house inspection. They may know something about floor inspection. These cleaners also know how to use skill saws, saws-alls, and other tools related to demolition work. These cleaners are not "Jack of all trades," types. They do intend to learn what they must to remain employed. Among those mature crime scene cleaners, there's a commitment to helping their employer's business fortunes improve. Their employer's business health means a job. In these, times, we might imagine that these mature crime scene cleaners work very hard and smart. These cleaners do not argue. They do not cause undue costs to their employers expense account. They understand that the meaning of "overhead" also means something about their prospects with their crime scene cleanup company. Less mature crime scene cleaners have yet to learn the importance of diligence and seeing things to be done, and doing these things. They have not made that intellectual and emotional commitment to their employer's business health and their work. These crime scene cleaners look to the clock. They ignore if not cover-up work to be done. They work timidly. They work they must, and prefer to let someone else take the initiative. They generally stand around holding up walls unless directly supervised. They do not follow verbal directions well. These crime scene cleaners do not last long in the crime scene cleanup business. They learn more slowly than those workers disciplined by unemployment, "down sizing," and workplace politics. With maturity some will learn the value of chipping in and doing their best. For their time in this niche type of cleaning, they have few prospects. Companies with Government Connections Crime scene cleaners find an entirely different landscape when government connections pave the way to their work. This means that government employees create crime scene cleanup monopolies. Tier one crime scene cleanup companies ignore free market competition from price taker crime scene cleanup companies. They ignore the market because they have a monopoly. They charge as they please. They have little incentive to follow city or county conflict-of-interest rules. This tells us that these monopolies have approval from above in many cases. Entire departments may gain by these ill-gotten gains. At Christmas time, on birth days, and as special recognition payments, non-participant observers receive "thank you" payments. These payments come often enough to keep the troops in line. These payments help to sooth those management decisions to dissuade non-participant employees from ratting. It also helps to bribe non-participant employees from starting their own crime scene cleanup business. Generally, two types of government crime scene cleanup monopolies control the United States' crime scene cleanup industry. These include those crime scene cleanup companies with exclusive contacts to prospective clients, victims' families. We shall call these "tier-one monopolies" to reflect their aristocratic hierarchy in government offices. Tier-One crime scene cleaners will live the life of Reily if a relative has a death administration job for the government. Those tier-one crime scene cleaners with direct monopoly controlled employers have a rare privilege. They have guaranteed work. Some earn as much as $400 for removing a bloody mattress. Their employer may receive $4,000 for as a result of their kin's work. The sky's the limit tier-one crime scene cleanup monopolies, then. For their employees, life's getting better with each job. Sure, they may work at a terrible job. Their days may include horrific scenes with even more horrific odors. Their pay and security justifies this downside. Al thought they work around absolute filth, ick, stink, and crude, they've got money in the bank, if they're smart. Some government employees place their children in control of a family owned crime scene cleanup business. This way families keep track of the latest news from their monopolized business world. Relatives report on their non-family employees. Which crime scene cleaners have trust problems. Which crime scene cleaners show the greatest promise. All of these notions come to family gatherings. Life for these government cronies could not get better. They're in and not by merit, but by position. It's as if they were born into an aristocracy, an aristocracy without threats from a peasant class or ruling patriarchs. Crime scene cleanup cleaners do not always have family relations in positions of power and control, government jobs. They may simply work as wage earners. No aunts, no uncles have a word in for them. They survive as tier-two workers survive. Their work comes more steadily. If lucky, they might make much more money. Some crime scene cleaners have made $75 an hour for 40 hours a week. They over overtime, too. These positions remain the exception. As we might expect, company owners privy to crony relationships have additional moral and ethical challenges. Crime scene cleaners with Jim Crow owners rarely have dark skin. Those with more enlightened bosses belong to minority groups at times. It's important to have Spanish speaking employees in many areas of the United States. Employees with language skills earn their bosses additional income. Employees with construction skills also bring in additional income. Drywall, electrical, flooring, and other trade skills bring in handsome insurance claims. Tier two government crime scene cleanup companies do not enjoy a direct one-to-one relationship with prospective clients. Their connections by way of word-of-mouth, business cards, and referred families for a payment. Payments in return foster tier-two semi-monopoly connections to city and county employees. City police officers, coroner employees, medical examiner employees, administration employees, public guardian employees, and probably some probate court employees take part. These employees do not own their own crime scene cleanup business by any appreciable number. Because they do not have a direct one-to-one concoction to prospective clients, they remain in the background.They may, though, double or triple their government pay as crime scene cleanup brokers. The money in cleaning after homicides, suicides, and unattended deaths leads to fantastic kickbacks. Because of their monopoly, civil servants charge insurance companies unconscionable fees. In return for their faithful service, civil servants can and do receive as much as $10,000 on large jobs. Imagine those crime scene cleaners working for a free-enterprise, price taker, crime scene cleanup company. They may cleanup sewage one day. The next, they cleanup up a suicide. For their efforts they make $10, $15, even $25 per hour. They may receive a minimum dollar amount to help with their cost of living; for they do not have a guaranteed 40 hour week. How could they? Their crime scene cleanup arises erratically. They may go 3 weeks without crime scene cleanup work. They also know that one day they may not have a job. Florida crime scene cleaners know their job prospects look poor at best. Los Angeles crime scene cleaners practitioners have poor prospects. Minimum wage jobs remain available in Los Angeles, but not many. Those price taker crime scene cleaners with savvy study. They read for pleasure and they read pragmatically. If computer literate, they work at their computer skills while looking for new skills to add to their skill base. Given the time and opportunity, they know with the correct skills, they have a chance. Those crime scene cleaners going along to get along would do well on most factory shop floors. Routine, repetitive tasks do not trouble them. In fact, commercial television, Fox News, and other mind stunning activities suit their need for self-enrichment. if they were ever to learn to learn, their prospects and critical skill base should grow. If not, their future mains one of gong-along-to-get-along. The go through their blood cleanup work like a floating, Japanese plastic toy, without self-direction. There's no way to know who pays what to whom. We must surmise a low of $10 to $25 per hour. Some company owners pay a flat fee. A going rate for many types of crime scene cleanup jobs hits about $400 per job at this writing. For meth labs inspections and removal of precursors, $1,000 rewards cleaners with the correct skills and knowledge. It's important to keep in mind that education may not count so much in this line of work. Like any janitorial work, there's only so much a cleaner needs to know. In crime scene cleaning their's the demolition work to keep in mind. There's the protective equipment to keep in mind. Then there's the special handling for the filth, ick, and crude. Otherwise, an academic education need not include science, humanities, or social sciences. Monday night football will suit the education demands of this position, once completion of training occurs.. As a price taker employee, there's a dim future. As monopoly employees, there's bright future, over all. What we see occurring in Russia and Latvia, and many other countries, reflects our future. Government at local and federal levels will continue to gain more control over our lives. Besides the continuing loss of civil liberties, including Habeas Corpus, business arrangements continue their perversion. One the one hand, we're told that we must "shrink government. And we may do so, but with greater government control over the competitive and monopoly sectors of our economy. On the other hand, we may witness a growth in government as government continues to seize the reigns of free market activities. Our government's role in the recent Wall Street thefts proves this out. The military industrial-congressional-corporate complex means more government intervention into other areas of our lives. Education, medicine, and transportation will follow crime scene cleanup capitalism's trail. Of course, crime scene cleaners in their one activities stand to profit and gain from their growing employment activities. Expect monopolization of crime scene cleanup companies from outside of government intervention. Although, expect them to continue their tight relationship with government employees.
