    Take an RF designer and have them man the till at McDonald’s with the day or two of training that most of these places do. See how they fare. I’m an EMT. Peoples lives literally depend on my skills.

    I’d guess the answer would be “be slow at checking people out and be super stressed, but be a net productivity boost to the team”.

    Meanwhile, if you made him an EMT with no prior training he’d either just be shadowing an actual EMT and at best be a go-fer, or he’d kill someone. He’d likely be a net negative for a while.
