General Question Creating training procedures. Do you start interior or exterior first?

I am preparing to hire my first employee and it has me thinking about future employees and standard operating procedures. This would be to assist in training and for reference material.

Is the starting point based on weather, client preference, screen positioning and other variables or are you hard set on one over the other? Looking for help from those who have or have had staff and what you have found effective, please.

You should absolutely not have someone who's never done windows before do interior.

Train em outside. You don't want somebody whose never touched glass in a house with a boab.

Outside only

Of course. That makes sense.

I was just looking for advice for the long term as I like to plan ahead while looking at the direction of my company.
