A curator's job is to prepare the sort of pitch the administrators tell him to prepare. Telling him how to do his job would be instructing him on what measures are best for preparing a pitch with seam in it. Telling him to prepare a seaming pitch is not telling him how to do his job, it's doing your job.

The administrators' job is to decide what pitch to tell the curator to try to prepare, the curator's job is to do everything in his power to prepare such a pitch.
