More or less?

The proverb "Many hands make light work" means "Large tasks become small when divided among several people" (source: Bartleby.com - The New Dictionary of Cultural Literacy, Third Edition). This is true for many cases. For example, when collecting funds for charity, assembling components of furniture, and finishing a huge meal with many dishes - it is better to have more people in your company. However, there is another saying: "Too many cooks spoil the broth". In your life, which one is more applicable to you?
