Because you don't call them out for 30 minutes of work, put them on a 10 minute break, give them another 10 minutes of work, put them on a 13 minute break... And only expect to pay them for two thirds of the time they worked.

You also don't have an automated system that broadcasts identical job offer to contractors, and is able to select whichever one answers first.

I'm sure the McDonald's manager would love to only pay his employees for the thirty second increments where there are customers in the restaurant... But I'm assuming you don't do that!
