I work with people like you... we usually don't let them play with the sharp tools right away as if they mess things up the customers get really upset.
Always instruct people that is is better to ask questions and learn from the folks who have been there and done that and can help you avoid those pitfalls.
Of course, we are working with known technology with established service techniques and although I appreciate it when people think out of the box and encourage this also, sometimes you need to stay in the box.
Can see where this might work in research and if I am going to experiment on things I make sure they are not something I am going to miss if things go badly.
