Is there anything in the HP world that bothers you?

I can't decide if this really bothers me or just assumes me, but 
here goes anyway:

Dumbledore, McGonagall, Molly Weasley, and probably others 
are frequently depicted conjuring various items - most notably 
food - out of thin air.

This makes me think of the slackers of the wizarding world, who 
learn the charm to conjure sandwiches so they never have to 
work ever again.  OK, so maybe you can't conjure more 
complicated things, but I imagine if one's standards were low 
enough one could get by being a very very lazy witch/wizard.  

Makes one wonder how they get all the menial, low-paying jobs 
filled.

Come to think of, there's probably a similar problem in the Star 
Trek universe.
