I agreed with this and went on, only to realize:
TOO MANY (I don't dare say "nearly all") of the people I
must work/associate with are uneducated.

I'm sure your own examples are more interesting than mine:
Today I went to my neighborhood Thrifty Drug Store (because it's close by). 
They are rarely well-stocked;  I have to make a weekly stop to get what
they  didn't have last time.   And the cashier -- when I found him --
gave me incorrect change.  Again!  That's two or three times in the last four!
In this case, it might be the Elementary School which failed to educate him!
