I Am Annoyed At Those With No Common Sense

I think I'm the only one that actively cleans this place. Love my roomies,they're great but none of them clean up after themselves. I'm used to having a maid but I still cleaned up my own trash at least. So frustrating. And it's not like we dont have a dishwasher so the sink shouldn't be full like this.I sound like a rishta auntie but parents need to step up and teach their kids to clean or they're going to suffer when theres no roomies to clean up after them.

Tell them (a true story) about mice that get into your dirty clothes if they leave them piled on the floor or too long in the laundry basket. I didn't have this happen to me, but I read somewhere about a woman whose daughter did and a mouse jumped out at her.

I live alone and like it, but if you live with a bunch of pigs, invest in paper plates and plastic silverware and toss them when you are finished. I live in a studio apartment with a kitchenette (no dishwasher) and it cuts down on water consumption.

@MaryJanine I already use paper plates and utensils. So I can honestly say it wasn't me when it piles up.

@HorrorshowHijabi I feel for you. My youngest sister-in-law lets dishes pile up in the sink, leaving them until my brother gets disgusted and does them. I have suggested this to him and he knows what I do. On the occasions that I use a real dish, I wash as I go so there is not a dirty pileup awaiting me after my meal. It takes a bit longer, but it pays off in the long run.

I do appreciate your feedback on this subject. Thanks fot sharing.
