Why Is Emptying The Dishwasher Such a Pain In The Neck

United States
May 10, 2019 9:34am CST
I've been tidying up the kitchen and getting ready for my next cup of coffee and some breakfast. But first, I had to unload the dishwasher. Not my favorite thing to do and although I'm a whiz at arranging everything in it so it's maxed out when we run it, I hate the job of having to empty it. But now it's done and it probably won't be run again until after the weekend. Do you hate to empty the dishwasher? what's your least favorite chore to do?

I don't know why but it is a royal pain to me to have to empty the dishwasher. I am not big on 'domestic labor' anyway but b=fi=or some reason I just plain don't like the emptying part of the dishwasher.

I hate doing it to0. I usually just use the clean dishes out of the dishwasher. It seems silly to put them all away for two people..well I should say 1 and a half..because roomie isn't here all that often.

I am the dishwasher and I hate washing dishes but of course it has to be done. The worst chore I have to do is clean litter boxes, yuck.

I do not have a dishwasher, except my two hands. I hate to dust, but since I am getting more minimal, meaning not many knick - knacks, its becoming easier.

My dishwasher broke three years ago and I decided not to replace it. I wash the dishes manually.

Yes, I hate emptying the dishwasher. The thing I dislike the most is cleaning the bathroom, specifically the toilet.

I don’t mind unloading the dishwasher too much, because my husband usually helps. lol My least favorite chore is vacuuming, but then again, my husband does it. I guess you can say that I don’t like doing any chores, but I do them daily.

While growing up, we did not have an automatic dishwasher...so we called ourselves "Armstrong Dishwashers"...

Emptying the dishwasher is something I put off, but once I start it, it is a snap, except for the silverware. I really dislike vacuuming.

I remember when I was holidaying in the US had spent a couple weeks at my niece's, and there I had this chore to unload the dish washer every morning (lol)

We no longer have one. It’s just my mom and me so we never replaced it when it broke. We use paper plates and/or hand wash things.

We have no dishwasher at home, and we clean dishes manually. I have no problem doing it because I am enjoying it/
