Not everyone has the "authority" (or staff) to delegate to someone else.
And not everyone has a supervisor/manager who will delegate tasks to others
on their staff because they know they'll get shoddy work as a result. So
they delegate to one or two people and are willing to wait until they return
from vacation to see that the job is done right.

I used to do a lot of cooking on weekends so I'd have leftovers to take for
lunch and to heat up for dinner during the week. I know exactly what Terry
is talking about now, being able to cook (or not) at my leisure
