Ridealongs. You are on to something, John. Fests and classes are all good and well but for me personally, nothing beats the learning at a real job, with actual "skin in the game". There could be a series of MiniMikeFests all around the country, where a cleaner or two goes out on an actual job doing work in an area they are weak in; they even stay at the host's house to save money, there could be a community GoPro that is sent to a board editor. Real training on real jobs. That could be a new room on the Mikeboard with jobs performed on specific projects.
I'm not sure how in the world you make that happen practically, but it's a heck of an idea. I'd be excited about leaving my market to be trained in something I'm weak in (natural stone, hardwood, fine upholstery, fine rugs, carpet repair). Hands on and dragging hose for someone who's willing to teach. Cool idea.
