I had a friend in the early 1970's who was a repair/install supervisor for
New Jersey Bell. If a new employee was able to tell if they could get a dial
tone by picking up the phone, they were assigned as repairmen.

The ones that could not were assigned as installers.

He always had far more installers than repairmen.
