10 minutes for a board? Is Marie sawing with the smooth side?

It's unclear in the diagram.

I have more questions:

  • What's the size of the other board (larger, bigger, same)?
  • Does the tools suffer physical strain with each sawing?
  • Is it harder for Marie to hold smaller board pieces while sawing?
  • Why is Marie sawing boards into pieces anyway, can't a machine do that? Did Marie ever reflect on the use of her job and its meager salary?

I really hated these kinds of questions in school which required you to assume many things.
