Spin off "Laundry" It's your job.

Have the lady's on here ever been told "it's your job" when it comes to cleaning work around the house.

Ugh yes. By my DH. His closet is a HOT MESS. I cleaned it once for him because 'it's my job' Chat Icon, but I told him I'd never do it again. For the record, it stayed clean and organized for about a week and now it's a mess again.

He doesn't tell me that. But it kinda IS my job. If I didn't clean we'd live in a garbage dump Chat Icon

Not really.

We agreed when we got married I'd take care of the "inside", he'd take care of the "outside".

Well, the outside is largely seasonal and takes a fraction of the time.

I'm up at 4:30 am every day, work FT, clean a 2,000sq. foot house w/o a cleaning lady, 1-2 loads per DAY, ironing, cook 6 nights a week, make DC's and my lunch every night. Since he started working in the city, longer hours, I'm lucky if he can empty the dishwasher or fold a load of laundry.

ETA: It's becoming an issue.

No ... although it (self-appointed) is my job.

He's just responsible (and failing) at putting the laundry in the hamper.

Re: Spin off "Laundry" It's your job.

never...well maybe jokingly but honestly he probably cleans more than I do

I tend to "organize", he does most of the actual cleaning

I *am* responsible for laundry and changing the sheets, but he makes up for it with many, many other tasks

Once. As a joke. After I went back to work and asked him to pick up some slack.

I was not laughing.

Re: Spin off "Laundry" It's your job.

DH has never told me that cleaning around the house or that doing the laundry is my job, just like I have never told him that cooking is his job. We just do what we do best. & of course we help each other out when we can.

No. and DH is more than on board with doing some stuff like the laundry. But I am picky, and I hate the way he just shoves whatever in the machine.... So I end up doing it. I don't mind. I am so busy during the week though that I end up spending several hours each weekend getting it done.

Re: Spin off "Laundry" It's your job.

No way - he knows better bc that would offend me a bit. However, i do 95% of the laundry otherwise I would end up with bleach stained "dark" clothes.

Same here. DH has never told me it was my job cause he would get slapped to next Sunday BUT it kind of is my job because if I dont do it we'd be living with dirty plates on the floor and bugs all over the place. My DH is a slob.Chat Icon Chat Icon

I was thinking the same thing...Chat Icon
Once...and he does miss those testicles!

But no, he never has, and he definitely knows better. He knew when he married me that I wouldn't be Beaver Cleaver's mom.

Re: Spin off "Laundry" It's your job.

Up til a few yrs ago, DH did NOTHING around our apartment. And what little he did di, was only after me asking 42 times then yelling at him. He never said it was "my job" though b/c he knew better.

Then I had surgery and physically couldnt do everything for a few weeks so he had no choice to help.

Now, I'd say he does more than me Chat Icon . I really think he finally realized that if he just pitches in, I'm nicer Chat Icon I work 2 jobs now so I get burnt out and need help around the house.

No and if he said that he'd be joking. He does the laundry at least as often as I do.
