Also, some people prefer to not deal with 'business stuff' at all. Obviously there is a continuum between 'only does exactly what he is told' and 'runs the business without me' and most people are somewhere between that. I'm just saying; people who quickly return to idle after a task is done rather than seeking out more work are significantly less useful. Also, people who can't tell me when they are ready for a new challenge (or that they are being shoved into water that is too deep) are significantly less useful than those who can.
