You've got to wonder.....
Ash - your posts often have me wondering...
You don't give much information, but your implication is that there were people just stood idly around and this is a wasteful and inefficient process - if so I'd be amazed as handlers have been cut to the bone (and if they were that overstaffed, they wouldn't be stood around outside they'd be inside drinking tea...
).
You don't just get on the apron without a v good reason, but their could be a hundred and one reasons - given the time of year, maybe newbies being inducted, or some sort of audit or inspection, something particularly "interesting" being loaded, airline visitors, etc, etc
