Indeed. I think some of the greatest images ever have been of the "Ordinary"
Our attention is seldom drawn to it ...and one of the biggest hurdles most beginning photographers have is their inability to find the extraordinary things to take photographs of.
They need a lot of convincing and a lot of practice shooting the common things, that people walk by every day, and finding the light and viewpoint that will make the image special.
