I never thought about it until you pointed it out.
It has the person doing everything in their power to solve the problem.
It has the person who is doing nothing, but is quick to question if ideas for solving the problem are a bit thin.
Then in the end, it has the supporting and grateful people. If one is lucky, there are people the person once they collapse.
