Wait a minute....

The vast bulk of our trade consists of routine craft.

Clever designs and schemes are the ambit of foremen, project managers and the head honcho -- not the journeymen.

If one is so lucky as to find a clever j-man -- then he's a candidate for foreman. (junior grade)

To use a clever man -- merely to craft his own builds -- is a waste of talent.

Such men are so rare that you can't 'hire them' -- you have to get lucky and promote them when discovered.

(Running an ad asking for for clever electricians lusting for financial abuse does not draw out talent. Such cannot be discovered in any hiring interview. Simply, talent will out, of its own nature. Whether management can bear to recognize such talent is another matter entirely.)
