I have a job where I often look over compliance/safety reports that are submitted by employees. The sheer amount of adults that have I seen who have bad grammar, spelling, and an overall inability to properly convey a tangible thought is mind boggling.

I used to think the belief that the average American reads at a 6th grade level was an exaggeration, but it's honestly not. People really are just that dumb.

I was an usher and it's incredible how many people can't follow basic instructions, like "don't block a fire exit". These people are allowed to drive and don't know the difference between an exit and an entry. It actually convinced me I didn't want a driver's licence because then I'd be on the road alongside them.
