I had a brief stint in a shit hole during COVID lockdowns. This old dude started and it turned out his wife and the lady in charge were friends. He was one of the dumbest people I’ve ever met. He legit had someone else’s glasses on and didn’t know until the other guy was trying to find his. He said he thought it was weird that he couldn’t see properly. He also seen a few guys with face screens rather than masks and he wanted one. We told him you can get them from health and safety, so off he goes. Comes back and says they’re awful, you can’t see shit out of them. He hadn’t removed the protective covering…
I’ve worked with some apes in my time but I’ve no idea how this guy got so far in life without dying or something
My father had his own business and at some point he had an assistant who is one of the dumbest people I’ve ever met. Her husband was an idiot too. At one point she was angry with him because he bought a “real” leather jacket out of some Russian guy’s trunk on some rest stop on the highway.
I traveled for a wedding where they’d rented out a whole place for guests to stay. They were just a little short of rooms and the first night I had to share a room with a friend. Older than me, has ADHD (I think I do too, but he has it in spades), kind of a mess. I woke up in the morning and couldn’t find my glasses. Sure enough, he got up before me, grabbed mine without knowing they weren’t his… Got them back later slightly mangled. Good times.
He wasn’t dumb, but he could be startlingly oblivious about some things.
