Apprentice First Week

🔵 Stable 🔷 SkillSpec L3 pm-trades

Plan an apprentice's or new laborer's first week so they're useful by Friday and safe from hour one — day-by-day teaching order, the safety non-negotiables stated before anything else, what they're allowed to touch unsupervised, and the check-out conversation that decides week two. Use when a tradesperson says 'my apprentice starts Monday', 'how do I train the new guy', or 'the apprentice is useless and I don't have time to teach'. Produces a first-week plan, a can/can't-touch list, and the Friday review script.

✅ The bar it holds itself to

Every skill in this library self-verifies — these are this skill's own quality checks, straight from its definition.

Safety brief is speakable in under 5 minutes and contains the
stop-and-ask rule verbatim
Every skill block comes from that week's actual booked work
The unsupervised list is genuinely short on day one and has a named
growth path
The review runs both directions — the teaching gets reviewed too
Formal scheme requirements are flagged for verification, never invented

⚠️ What it refuses to do

Do not plan a week of fetching — usefulness without teaching is how
apprentices quit; teaching without standing jobs is how the business
loses a week
Do not soften safety rules to seem friendly on day one — absolutes on
Monday, warmth all week
