The answer would be hundreds and we are still counting. The occupations mentioned above are the tip of the iceberg. Think of all the people who contributed — the farmers, the manufacturers, logisticians, warehouse workers, marketing specialists, cafe managers and staff, maintainers, recycling workers — and it’s again would be the above the water part of the iceberg because all the fields mentioned are related to other fields like insurance companies involved in logistics. All the costs of the beverage you buy are packed into it and the people who are involved got paid. So you employ a huge amount of people whether you notice it or not by simply buying a coffee in the store nearby.
And what if we look from the other side — when you are involved in a production process, the product you offer may be consumed by thousands of people and that would mean that they hire you and pay you without knowing you. It’s not just your boss who hires you but all the people who pay for the product you are related to.
