Creativity, as I&#x27;ve said above, has to do with doing things apart from the norm, doing them differently to how they are usually done or how they have been done before.<p>Using that definition allows a relatively objective comparison of the creativity involved in various tasks. Of course, just how much creativity is involved depends on how the person concerned actually executes a task. (It is perfectly possible to write an incredibly uncreative poem, for example.) In that sense there is some subjectivity involved, but the subjectivity depends primarily on how the subject executes his task, not how he perceives it.<p>Going back to the production line: production lines were invented specifically to get <i>rid</i> of creativity. Ford wanted to ensure that every single car coming out of his factory was identical. The production line was his way of forcing equality, sameness - thus, the production line is the very antithesis of creativity. Of course, you might find a worker here or there who will work creatively on a production line. But I dare say he won&#x27;t keep his job for long...
