It's not just the UK....I've had grown men who didn't know how to change a tire, and one who couldn't reset a breaker...yeah  he called the police because he didn't know that putting 4 extension cords full of assorted crap on one outlet would pop a breaker and turn off the power...  NEVER underestimate the ability of people to be stupid.  A friend of mine  (Very pretty girl, GREAT tits, and no pics)  once told her father and brother that she didn't need to learn how to change a tire because "I have these"  her brother went out and let the air out of one of her tired and told her "Now wgat?  I don't give a damn about "Those". ...so she learned to change a tire.

I was having a conversation with my dad last week about how I don't understand how people can live needing someone else for even the most basic repairs and maintenance. I'd have to make at least 3x what I make now in order to keep what I have maintained, repaired, or replaced by other people instead of doing it myself.

To be fair, there comes a point where your time is more valuable than the cost of hiring someone to do it.  When people start making real money, it is better to focus on work and get paid...rather than trying to take time off work to do a project.

I don't know how to change a tire.  With liabilities I wouldn't want to change one.  But still, I have no idea how a Jack works or if my spare has air.  I keep fix a flat and AAA.
