A comment on The rise of the pointless job. Parent comment
You figure out how to build a base, how to seperate items by contimination risk, learn how to fill a bag up.
People who do it poorly give you 15 bags when 7 will do.
The biggest incentive is to do it faster. The job is boring as sin, so you just want to get it over with.
It's also a good job for mentally challenged people. It's low stress, something they can learn, and something they can do well at.
