I was fortunate to have learned my trade from two of the finest craftsmen I have ever met, both were Wentworth graduates and had many years in the home building trade. They showed me methods I may never had learned on my own.
My company hired a young carpenter, very nice kid, hard worker, humble, and very willing to learn. When I see him having trouble with a certain task, or not sure about something , I show him how its done. It makes my day when he comes back later and says
"Thank you for showing me that"

Came back to haunt me, ended up competing with a couple of them :-)
All good!
