Have you ever started washing the pots only to find you've ran out of
space on the drainer so you give in? Is your husband or wife shouting
at you for not finishing the dishes? Well this could be the answer...

I wouldn't need a dish drainer in that case. Shotgun, maybe, but not a
dish drainer.

(laughing!) Could you imagine? That would certainly evoke
THE LOOK and Is there someone behind me? Because you know
you're not talking to me. Followed by a phone call to first aid,
because it would be apparant he'd suddenly lost his mind and needed
to be locked up.

The call to first aid at my house would be because he'd "accidentally" hit
his head on a cast iron skillet. Yeah, yeah, that's it.

My house mate knows better. ;-)

If I don't finish the dishes, he volunteers to do them later.

I don't really like him washing dishes tho'. His eyesight is not as good
as mine so he often does not get some stuff clean, especially flatware.

I've made it clear that dish washing is _my_ job! G

I've made it clear that dish washing is done in the dishwasher. I load, he
empties, since he has no concept of proper loading. If it can't be
dishwashered, I rarely use it.

I've told my hubby I would prefer he rinse and put his dirty dishes in the
dishwasher. He hasn't the slightest clue how to actually load it. But the
dishes are rinsed and off the counter. I don't think I've ever run the
dishwasher without spending 10 or 15 minutes rearranging to get one or two
more things in anyway. I almost always wait until we have a full load and
then it seems to suddenly be extra full.

Actually, that's pretty much the way it ends up here. SO usually unloads
the d/w and puts the dirty breakfast dishes in after I've already left for
work. At least it leaves the counter and sink clean. After dinner I
rearrange what he put in and load everything else. We have a full load
every evening. Anyone who has ever seen me load a dishwasher usually says
they've never seen it loaded so efficiently for optimum washing. :-) From
your own experience, you know that does take an extra few minutes.

I have to unload too. If hubby puts things away it can take me ages to find
something that's not the usual plate-glass-silverware.

This dishwasher doesn't get cereal bowls clean if they're in the top rack.
In the last one it was the perfect place for them.

I wouldn't keep a dishwasher that required rinsing things off before it
did the washing. Seems like a huge waste of water and time to me

I don't own one...... Never have, and probably never will.
I'm not exactly a technophobe, but probably pretty close. ;-)

I've seen what a dishwasher did to my sisters marriage. It's worse than
a sink that cannot get as full!

I don't get the choice to keep it, it came with the kitchen and it'll stay
with the kitchen when I leave. Plus I live where the water is very hard, if
you don't rinse they don't get clean.

The second time, of course, was when he tried to get up off the floor, a tad
dazed, slipped in some of the soapy water and went down again, banging his
head a second time in the process
