I think you're just being facetious.
But I feel serious tonight, and the workload doesn't balance out. One person causes more work than one parcel, but the number of parcels is large and so is the additional workload.

Yes, but keep in mind that when talking about customs it's not just about tourist traffic, but also raw material imports that arrive via ship.

Of course, where else would it fall? What a joke of an administration.
