When Dad was a representative for a company that sold baler and binder twine, he was sent to a warehouse (I think in Kansas) to check on some complaints. It seems that people were complaining about their balls of twine coming right in the first few feet. No one had bothered to check any deeper as they assumed that whole ball would be in short segments. Dad went to the warehouse and looked over some some the bales of twine stacked there. Right away, he found one with a small hole in the paper wrapping. A little investigation revealed that someone had gotten the bright idea to do a little indoor target practice with the bales of twine as a backstop.

Not only a less than minimally educated person, but stupid and out of touch as well.
