Mr C has handed the job over wuth pleasure 😂. He’s encouraged (allowed) to empty it though. .

Indeed. I know my limitations in this area!

Pass the job on to someone who can do the job properly and sit and have a cup of tea! smile

I get told off by my children for putting knives in with blades upwards. I started this after 2 cutlery baskets got damaged by having sharp objects dropped into them. Apparently I am risking death by stumbling and impaling myself on a knife

If I ever do it, dh rearranges it to stuff more in. So I nearly always leave it to him now.
He does also unload and put away in the morning, so I’m not complaining!

I also load it "wrongly" yet however it's not MY loads that come out needing a rewash because they were overloaded hmm

I only have a tiny dishwasher (a present to my grandsons who used to complain about my washing up)

So, I shove it all in like a game of jenga, then get told off for that, too.

Told off, yes, often. I still load the dish washer my way. If DH wants to reload it and waste time, so be it

I throw it in, my OH sorts it in order, result!

I gave up trying to meet Himself’s exacting standards years ago.

I’m always being told off!

WTF??
It’s been scientifically proved that men can’t load a dishwasher properly! 😂

It seems that I am no longer to be trusted, especially with putting in bowls which have been used to heat baked beans in the microwave.......
