    I can’t get past how their transportation technique requires at least 1 extra person, but it seems like just the two guys.

      It’s because no one is willing to work anymore.

      They’ve got nothing but excuses. “I can’t come in today, I got the plague” and “my kid got eviscerated by a hippo, I need the day off for the funeral” and “this famine is making food unaffordable, please pay us more.” They’re all just lazy and ungrateful for the privilege of toiling.

        Fun fact, archaeologists have found what is essentially and ancient Egyptian clock in sheet, that had listed reasons why workers couldn’t attend that day and it included things like their wife or daughter being on their periods so they would take time off work to care for them.

        So in some ways the ancient Egyptians were more progressive than we are.
