I forget the exact number of seconds (i think it was in the high teens or low 20s), but the math worked out to seconds.
There were just so many red flags to me. Not saying I didnt use them, because I did, but the math just didnt work.
Edit: depending on how one makes assumptions: who pulls it out of the sleeve, who opens the box, who sets aside the paperwork, who does the paperwork etc etc. but if the guys just strictly grade and nothing else in the process:
1,763,700 cards in 2018 fiscal year
“At June 30, 2018, we employed 22 experts who have an average of 14 years of service with the Company”
Number of seconds in an hour is 60*60= 3,600
Number of work hours per week: 40
Number of weeks per year w/vacation: 50
Total number of seconds per employee working = 7,200,000. (3600 * 40 * 50)
Total number of expert seconds per year = 7,200,000 * 22 = 158,400,000
158,400,00 / 1,763,700 = 89.81 seconds per card start to finish.
