How so? It doesn't take a bunch of people to fuel an aircraft.
The DC-X launch crew was 11 people, and at least one of them turned out
to be unnecessary in practice... and that was with LOX/LH2.
The LOX trucks that deliver to hospitals use a crew of at most two (I
haven't watched one in a long time, they may be down to one).
