Years ago, at one of my first real jobs, I had a lot of little responsibilities in an office. I delivered inter-office mail, filed paperwork, typed memos, made copies, relieved the receptionist on her breaks, etc.
Over time, people began asking me to do more little things. They wanted more copies, they needed more things typed, someone had to supervise a student intern, and so on. It wasn't difficult to add one more little thing. And then another little thing. and another.
To be honest, I didn't really notice that I was doing so much more work than I had started with. But when I left that job, they had to replace me with two people.
