i once heard about this toilet cleaner/sweeper in a big time studio, he maintains the cleanliness of the console room. everyday he gets to watch this big time producer do his thang , so curious, he asked loads of questions, he self studied and ironically the cleaner turned out to be a way more talented producer and eventually started his own much more successful production.
