There should be more memoirs and (auto)biographies about just regular people. Like some random plumber or office worker who achieved nothing particularly notable, publishing a book about their life. I mean, they could still have funny or crazy stories about things that happened to them.

How about randos throughout history? For example, You Can't Win by Jack Black (a hobo in the late 1800s and early 1900s). You can also find plenty of travelogues from normal people, but those might not be mundane enough. Closer ones might include Two Years Before the Mast by Richard Henry Dana Jr. (a Harvard student who decided to sign with a merchant ship in the 1830s) or Three Years in Tristan Da Cunha by Katherine Mary Barrow (the wife of a missionary).

No they don't, and the majority of anecdotes you heard or read online are problably made up. We need authors to stop talking about themselves.

one of our texts for 12th grade english was the autobiography of a romanian immigrant who moved to a farm in melbourne when he was a kid
the only thing I remember about it is that his mum was a bpd whore and fucked the father's brother
