It's probably the ratio that's most surprising. Sure, most people probably know there'll be bookkeeping and other tasks, just not the degree. I wouldn't be surprised if most people imagine something like 50/50 at worst.

Some might also be surprised by how distinct the logistics/admin work is. For instance, they may think that since it's bookkeeping for a winery it's still work related to something they love, thus enjoyable. Then, they realize bookkeeping is bookkeeping, which further emphasizes how much time they're spending on not the thing they love (logistics/admin).
