Doing demo for experience?

I’ve been trying to wholesale for the past month or two and haven’t come up with anything. One person I called said he needed help with demo work so I’ve been shoveling out old insulation and smashing walls for $15/hr on my days off.

I eventually want to find my own property to BRRR so I thought it could be good experience to see a rehab from demo to finish (I think he's fine with me checking up on the property as it progresses).

Do you think this is a productive use of my time, or am I falling into a trap of low leverage work?
