Exactly right, when I was drafting I worked with some mediocre engineers. It could be that they saw engineering as a meal ticket and really didn't apply themselves.
I also had to deal with egos in that one engineer thought that because his pay was more than a draftsman, his ideas were more likely to be correct. Another engineer really got upset when I tried to correct something he was specifying on a drawing.
