    Anytime I need to seek something outside my skillset, I basically offer myself as “apprentice for the day” and you’d be surprised how many will take you up on it.

      Like, you hire a contractor to do work for you and ask them to let you apprentice for them at the same time and they go for it? I would love doing this so I don’t have to hire a contractor the second time! What do you say to them to get them to agree?

        Yeah some of them are keen, some of them like an extra pair of hands to steady things, or a good chat. You’ll always learn something even just by watching them.
