Definition of "all thumbs": Clumsy or awkward. Example: “Where plumbing is concerned, Walter is all thumbs.”

The opposable thumb is the hallmark of human dexterity - precise manipulation of objects (read tools) becomes possible. The rest is history.

When he tried to keep me under his thumb, I gave him the finger.

Politicians are famous for having their thumbs in many pies and for having that in places where the sun never shines.

I suppose having a green thumb from the experience is unlikely in either event.

Doesn't look good on the resume.
Having a green one might.
Along with the part where you prove that you don't just twiddle your thumbs...

Depends upon what conditions they are exposed to.
And they are not all one species.
