I have worked with people suffering from FAS before. Their impulse control problems made many jobs untenable. A desire to learn cannot overcome some disabilities.
even just holding a sign during road construction is going to pay more than standing behind a counter. basic carpentry isnt difficult and you dont need a lot of intelligence to do it (had a roommate once who did framing, guy was dumber than a box of dirt but he made a really nice wage).
there are a lot of jobs one could do. perhaps cruzie's fault was that he had no ambition.
impulse control is completely different from dumb. army likes Forrest Gump dumb, not Gomer Pyle dumb.
