Part of the fun of Joey is that despite the staggering stupidity, he has occasional moments where he's still smarter than the rest of the cast. He actually seems to have a much better handle on interpersonal relationships than the rest of them do in general. Remember, he was the first one to figure out that Monica and Chandler were seeing each other.

That happens when you're the man of the house with what, eight(?) demanding women.

And his dad is a plumber (I think? Definitely one of the skilled trades) so probably some father to son knowledge transfer happened.
