Wouldn't a delay instruction help ?

Do you mean worker #1 would tend to be overworked compared to the others ?
In the program I run - perhaps because the jobs are long: a few seconds number crunching - it doesn't seem to be the case:

Worker 1	362	jobs
Worker 2	540	jobs
Worker 3	652	jobs
Worker 4	359	jobs
Worker 5	366	jobs
Worker 6	592	jobs
Worker 7	371	jobs
Worker 8	370	jobs
