What we should have learned our senior year of high school - Page 2

A buddy of mine swears he never loads another houses dishwasher. People are very picky about it. Which I find more true than not.

The worse person for it, is my mother in law. She says she worries about the knifes sticking too far down in the basket and hitting the spinning water fan. So she loads all the knifes, forks... pointy edge UP!!! WTF is that shit!

They actually get cleaner that way.

But yeah, no matter how I do it, it's "wrong".

Heather, I find it hard to believe that you don't have a way you like it loaded.

My dishwasher had a "knife basket" where they sat sideways.

I still got yelled at for doing it wrong

I always doe the dishes becuase my GF just throws them in in random order. Doesn't even wash them first. Then I'm stuck with nasty cereal bowls.

Those are great!

What an odd thing to profess. Unless he's a housekeeper or something?

I was wondering about that myself.

I don't think that situation arises often enough to have a rule about it.

Granted, I have a rule that you never sweeten anyone else's coffee or tea and you never add milk to anyone's cereal. You let them do that themselves. That's too personal. I guess that is just as obscure.

Ok so ur at ur friends or family house for dinner or bbq or t-day. You're putting you dish away or helping do dishes. You may be in the place to load the dishwasher if you're trying to help. He won't do it or will ask if the person has a particular way. And as seen here, it's obviously an issue for many.
