> A fast construction worker will never be 25 times faster than a slow one. I actually sort of doubt this. Fields like construction often require quite a bit on-site problem-solving and quick thinking, simply because making large physical objects stick together in an ordered way is fairly complicated. When you consider also that construction work is a team-oriented profession, it becomes imaginable that the right worker could make the whole team far more effective. And actually, even the waiter example, I'm not sure. A great waiter makes the customer feel like an honored, highly-ranked guest of royalty. A bad one fills people with hatred for the restaurant and anyone involved in it.
