If it takes 1 person 30 minutes to do this etc etc

I bet someone has this kind of measurement where a lot of manual labour is needed.

Frederick Taylor did an exact study on this sort of thing for multiple manual tasks back in the late 1800s/early 1900s.

Of course, he also advocated for higher wages and shorter working hours for those who were capable of accomplishing more, but that part gets conveniently forgotten about ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

In that case I am worth 10 manpower peak, and sustained 3 manpower. Depending on the activity. With the right honey I can exceed those levels
