Ya know you have a few of these …..
In the house -
If you resort to this….
In an attempt to get someone else besides yourself to realize they can in fact put a dish in the dishwasher themselves!
somehow I think everyone here thinks the magic dish fairy takes their dishes from the sink to the dishwasher.
So, I thought a little reminder smack dab in front of them as they stand at the sink would work -
“oh, the dish washer is dirty!? Well then let me turn 30 degrees, pull open the door and place my dish/bowl/spoon in there myself!”
As you can see,
it is not working as well as I had hoped!
I spared you the photo of the sink full of dishes placed directly under my note……

Hints don't work. Next time the note needs to say "Put all dirty dishes, glasses, silverware, etc in dishwasher." I'd add or you'll be washing all dishes in sink by hand, but I'm mean!
Ha!!! I feel your pain!!!!
OMG, we have this type of conversation regarding the trash cans in our house. John comes home from work, 'No one took out the trash.' Me, 'Did you write a note?' John, 'Why would I write a note? I told them last night it needs to be taken out?' Me again, 'Yes, but they're teenagers, telling them doesn't work. You have to leave a note. It's the only way to get them to do anything while you're at work.' Andi, your notes really need to be more specific. They think you're just helping them to put the dirty dishes in the right place.
