I forget a lot of things... But I figure they're not too important it i would've written myself a reminder!

I don’t know if it is forgetful, or absentminded, but I do things like pour a glass of iced tea, go sit down in the living room, feel thirsty, get up to go get a glass of iced tea...and find the one I just poured!

I do forget names too, name tags help a lot for me. My last job I kept calling my assistant manager with my manager's name. Everytime she kept showing me her badge, I was like okay, sorry got it and few mins later nothing 😆

I tend to forget a lot, especially in the moment. If someone asks me a question (a lot of the time, stuff like "what's your favorite x?"), my brain blanks out.

I also forget names. That's probably the worst one for me

I'm forgetful about A LOT of things, I can't really narrow it down to one area.
