    Agreed, getting jobs out is what keeps shops afloat.
    But The key is in planning how best to accomplish the task with equipment on hand causes issues. Too much reliance for 'we always did it this way'. A commercial entity should look for improvements, even being incremental, to have some kind of competitive edge. Old ways don't offer pay increases to employees, causing turnover and delivery interruptions. It restricts daily output regardless. Worst is probably when rush jobs come in; vice ability completing them in regular hours yet charge the OT premium for rapid service.

    Need proof?
    Right here in HMT.net. I'm positive the majority aren't operated for profit, yet look to improve on how they do work.
