If I hire someone to do a specific job I obviously want them to be smarter or, at the very least, better at it than me.

Remember, you were the one who claimed that most with an IQ over 100 didn't know what they were doing. That was why I teased you over it.
OK, @Aylen, sorry to have misunderstood.

Actually, most people do know what they are doing in certain given areas, no matter their IQ. But people with high IQ's are particularly susceptible to thinking that they could be experts in all areas, and that is far from the case.

I believed that I could do anything well for a long time, and then I re-tiled my bathtub because, how hard can that be? Well, I found out. It looked perfect for two days, and then the grout discolored and eventually the tiles started falling off the wall.
