Have a look, please, at this wonderfully talented lady going about pretty
much every beekeeping task you can think of and doing it with apparent ease
and a high level of competence ...

You have 2,000 hives.  You have a couple of unskilled and barely trained
part time employees.  Let's say you are tired of picking up boxes and want
to hire this lady to run your operation for you.  What would you offer to
pay her?
