Did anyone else have more chores than their siblings?

I'm 21 and currently live with my parents. I have 24 year old brother who lives at home too. I go to school full-time, I will be graduating next year in the spring. However my brother isn't in school and he's not working either. He sits around the house playing video games all day. When my parents are at work and we're both at home, they ask me to do everything in the house.

It's probably because they know they'll have to deal with shit if they ask him, or he won't do them. But, they know you will, so asking you is easier for them than trying to convince and hound your brother to do something. Same with a lot of bosses. I usially get more responsibilities at work, due to that reason. They know I put effort in and won't argue or give them a hard time, unlike othet employees, when they ask me to do something--up to a point
