During slow times of the day one assembler can handle all


Consider an assembly line such as the burrito assembly line at a Chipotle Mexican Grill. During slow times of the day, one assembler can handle all of the assembly tasks in satisfactory time. But during peak customer times, having many servers would be prudent. Explain why either approach would not work all of the time, and the benefit of matching the number of assemblers to the pace of customer arrivals. If you want sample data, assume that burrito assembly time is one minute, and demand is 240 burritos per day spread over an 8 hour day.
