A term used to describe someone who knows a lot about many things, but, with the second tag "master of none" added it transforms into a derogatory phrase meant to emphasize how mastery of one skill is important for deeper knowledge.
However, one, oft forgotten tag is the third one: "is oftentimes better than a master of one". Instantly, the term reverses meaning, symbolizing how a person who knows a lot about many things that integrates their skills allows them to surpass even a master of one.
Interesting phrase, nonetheless.
"Man, Tom knows a lot! He's a jack of all trades, aint he?"
"Yeah, but he probably doesn't know a lot about specifics. You know how it goes: Jack of all trades, master of none."
"Jack of all trades, master of one, is oftentimes better than master of one, man. Tom's pretty smart."

an unequal trade of people within a workplace to different shifts and/or departments leaving the previous spot filled by a person with less experienced/unqualified person
Person C was moved from nights to days and person K took Person C's spot on nights. Person K is not half as good as person C, therefore night shift got Trade Raped

Previously, coined as "Jack-of-all-trades," a NEXT level of skill and precision has been established. One step above Jack.
Gian is a subject matter expert in all areas. Basically, he can do all that Jack can do and add do it even better. Is your car leaking oil? He can repair your car. Is your printer on fire? He can put out that fire. Is your child playing near an alligator? He can save your baby AND become best friends with that alligator. Don't you worry, just get someone who is a Gian-of-all-trades if you find yourself in a rut.
When you create a character class where all the skills are maxed out, that character was created as the Gian-of-all-trades.
A person who is skilled at a variety of different things, but not to the same level as a person who is specialised in one of these things.
Jack of all trades, master of none,
but ofttimes better than a master of one.

A pretty based gamer moment done by people long ago where people used others for free labor. pretty smart, right?
That transatlantic slave trade? not gonna lie, pretty smart
a task or chore that's so easy, most people can easily perform it. one should not use a trade of all jacks to impress someone.
Guy: "did you see the way i replaced that light bulb? pretty impressive huh?"
Girl: "dude, that's a trade of all jacks. my grandma can do that and she doesn't have hands."

Father O'Malley lounged dreamily on his chez long, thumbing his holy book, recounting to himself a lost weekend with Italian sailors on shore leave;
"Luigi rattled my head board like no altar boy could. By Monday morning my Trades Man's Entrance flapped like a wind sock in a force seven gale".
