Square Peg?
"I'M SORRY," said the personnel officer to our plant superintendent's son, "But you can't 'have the job." With your IQ of 142, you're too intelligent to do repetitive work like running an adding machine. You'd tire of it in a few hours. Find something that taxes your imagination."
That advice was a slop to my friend's brilliant son, but it was sound. In one of my early plants, a crackerjack lathe hand had started making costly mistakes. Finally he told the boss he was quitting--sold he was getting tired of doing the same thing day after day.
"Look," said the sharp ptont engineer. "Let me put you in the power-house maintenance gang. You'll be all over the place and each job will be different, if you don't like it after one month, you can quit."
That was in 1929. The ex-lathe operator ia now the plant engineer of the entire works. He had too much imagination to be making the same parts, day after day, onthe same machine. Cut loose from his lathe, he did more things to keep a lame machine running than anyone I had ever seen. Before tong we all asked his advice on maintenance short cuts. At last he was a square peg in a square hole.
Ever think of shifting your gang around to keep them satisfied? What ever you do, don't smother' a guy who has ideos by snowing him under with monotonous details. Cash in on his natural obility.
