What if the janitor didn't clean the toilets and the biochemist became ill and died from that before his work was done?
Everyone plays a role.
Who cant clean a lab? There is a whole pool of manpower who can do it however a small percentage of manpower can do the task of biochemist.
The pay depends on the usefulness of skill, which in turn depends upon the scarcity of the skill.
A large percentage of manpower is capable of doing a lot of the work of a biochemist, for example the process of serial dilution. Simple, mechanical, repetitive.
And why should the biochemist receive all the credit when others will be doing lots of the work?
