Moff Jerjerrod asked for more men in the movie Empire Strikes Back but i dont think the real problem was about the men... it was the lack of containers
Dialogue:
[Darth Vader steps out of his shuttle on the Death Star.]
Moff Jerjerrod: -Welcome, Lord Vader. This is an unexpected pleasure. We are honored by your presence.
Darth Vader: -You may dispense with the pleasantries, Commander. I am here to put you back on schedule.
Jerjerrod: -I assure you, Lord Vader, my men are working as fast they can.
Vader: -Perhaps I can find new ways to motivate them.
Jerjerrod: -I tell you that this station will be operational as planned.
Vader: -The Emperor does not share your optimistic appraisal of the situation.
Jerjerrod: -But he asks the impossible! I need more shipping containers!
Vader: -Then perhaps you can tell him yourself when he arrives.
Jerjerrod: [alarmed] -The Emperor's coming here?
Vader: -That is correct, Commander, and he is most displeased with your apparent lack of progress.
Jerjerrod: -We shall double our efforts.
Vader: -I hope so, Commander, for your sake. The Emperor is not as forgiving as I am.
More men doesn't always yield better progress, thus the dreaded Death Star never got complete due to the lack of said shipping containers
