It really depends on what you are using people for and how. If you are using them to do busy work that you could otherwise do yourself it may be like that. But if they are skilled workers, I don't agree. My organization is very lean and I try to use technology whenever possible to make my work more efficient. When I do hire people to work for me, part time or otherwise, I usually hire people who are actually skilled at what I need who can do quicker and much better work than me at the tasks I need from them like graphic design with Photoshop, web design, html, CSS or animation for video.
So those skilled people are giving more than what would be my 100% by far on those kind of tasks. The trick is finding those talented people, locally which I prefer, or remotely otherwise, and treating them in such a way that they don't mind doing skilled work on a flexible basis in in doing so one can leverage their talents to make one's own work & product better than they otherwise would be.
