As a child, whenever you had a problem, you most likely went to your parents or some other adult to solve it. But as you grew up, you learned how to do things on your own. Part of being an adult is having a grasp on certain basic life skills – however, as it turns out, not every life lesson is as basic to one person as it is to the next.
The New York Times editor Jenee Desmond-Harris recently shared on Twitter her landlord’s unexpected know-how blindspot, and then asked the internet to share their own. People delivered all sorts of hilarious answers, and some of them you might be able to relate to – from social skills such a the dreaded small talk to vital work skills. Scroll down to check out some of the best responses, and don’t forget to upvote your faves! And don’t forget to let us know in the comments, which seemingly simple things you’ve missed along the way.
