There is a way of generalizing this to all of them, though, which is: Why should any of them have to do anything they don't actually have to do for their job? A relevant example to many hourly jobs might be managers being inflexible in their hours more-or-less just because they can. (Though this has gotten "better" as more and more businesses staff down and they're being inflexible because they have to be to be open at all... which is not exactly manifesting as an improvement for the worker, though.) Doctors might wonder why they went to school for over a decade and have 1.5 administrators per doctor and still need to spend the majority of their time filling out paperwork. Etc.
