I heard the same story when I was a kid, but it was about a boilermaker. The rest was for knowing where to tap his hammer to fix their problem.
It’s an obviously apocryphal story with two great messages. First, don’t undervalue your expertise just because the fix was easy (I still have a problem with that). Second, if you don’t know what you’re doing don’t question the expert just because it looked easy.
