I've just finished cleaning our room and I really hate doing it. If there is one thing that I hate to do it's cleaning. Most of the time I would ask our maid to do it for me. I would rather cook and do the laundry than cleaning. What about you, what chore you hate and preferred to do?

I hate just about every chore! A chore is a chore! But they have to get home. I have been known to not like cleaning up sooo much that I had 3 cartons of ice cream, a huge pile of dirty clothes, and a couple unhung towels all lying on my floor at once, along with countless other uncleansy things. I also dislike doing the laundry, and getting my clothes out of the drier and hanging them up/put them away when they're dry. Hah, but I'm getting better!

i totally understand you. i don't think that people really love doing chores. Except for cooking maybe, because for some it's their passion and when it is your passion then it is not a chore anymore. But I don't think that someone could say I love doing the laundry or I'm so passionate with my cleaning hahaha. I can't imagine myself to be like that. But I would rather do the laundry even if it's more difficult that cleaning.

I am the same why I don't like cleaning to much. Washing dishes, doing clothes and cooking no problem. I don't mind doing and of them but I am not to big on cleaning. Although I know it has to be done.

I would say cleaning out the refrigerator and cleaning the bathrooms. I try to break it up and do alittle at a time so I am not so overwhelmed.

I think I am with you, cooking is ok, laundry is ok, but cleaning is just annoying, filled with dust, and misery.

Haha.I hardly do any cleaning work at home,rather,I wash the dishes a lot.I don't like to cook because I had cooked once but my "client" disliked the taste.It hurted me a lot and I haven't cooked from then on. I think washing dishes is a pleasant work because I like to make things clean and neat as they were before.

You just need to practice more on cooking then or you can give your hand to the person who is cooking by cleaning up the dishes after. Maybe your client just have a weird taste in food. Don't feel bad about it. hehe

I actually like cleaning our house because it burns my fats. The only household chore that i hate doing is ironing our clothes. I'm in charge of ironing so the whole family's clothes must be ironed by me. The advantage is that it also burns calories.

The household chore that I really hate most. Is hanging the clothes after washing.This may sound lame but I can't reach it. haha. I'm to short for it. Well, I think that's the only thing I don't like.

Mmm... everything but cooking! Hello rajaiv0810. I think there is no point waisting a lot of time of our lives cleaning than doing better things, but dirt happens. And as a housewife, its my everyday job. Any way. I like to separate the clothes and put it in the washer machine, I never complaint because for so long I've washed manually and its a real blessing to have that machine. What I don't like about that is to hang them over and everything that comes after until clothes are back in the wardrobe. I like to wash the dishes when the water is warm, but I hate when I have to do it fast, I like to wash them while watching TV. What I really really dislike is to dry them and store them where everything belongs, it doesn't sounds bad, but I'm lazy to do that and when I already have more dishes to wash and the others are still there, I get all stressed out to see that much dishes. I like sweeping but dislike to collect all the dust. I don't like to mop because I hate when hairs are still in the floor fighting me. Making my bed I don't either like or dislike. Everything else I guess is OK. Oooh I forgot to mention that I'm against ironing everything because it's too much electricity. Happy mylotting and try to enjoy cleaning when you have to. Libna.

for me the household chore that i would consider as the most hate-able job is doing the laundry especially if you would do the laundry manually. you would exert much effort in scrubbing the laundries. my back would always inflict pain when i do the laundry.
