Plenty, such works are hard work with limited openings, an apprentice might have to go through this for years with very low wages since they are getting free training and yet have no prospects for work until the master retires. What young person wants that or has the patience for that today? Trying to train someone last minute is with risks since such candidates might drop out. The ideal thing to do would be to hire multiple candidates, pay them really well and pick the best or two 2 at the very end.
