   I’m increasingly convinced that all services and most jobs would be improved with more staff. Literally, just more people.

   More people sitting around getting paid with nothing to do, until there is in fact something to do.

   Pay people to staff all those windows at the post office and bank and then celebrate no lines. Pay people to bus the tables, and other people to seat the guests, and still more people to take the orders and run the food.

   I’m so tired of seeing one person doing it all

     Agreed. And it gives people to learn the jobs instead of getting thrown into the deep end trying to do them all (or having to already have experience). I just filled out my 68th job application in 6 months today and just want a chance, too, like a lot of folks, do. But they want them to have experience already and only pay them beginner's wages. Yikes and a half.
