Is washing dishes a sin?
I LOVE YOU POCAHONTAS!!!!!!!!
Am I lazy if I wash only 50% of the dishes in the sink?
So... I gather from your details that you're a teen living at home on your parents dime.Here's the deal, I'm fairly sure that your parents consider it to be a burden or a hassle to support someone who doesn't willingly support the family. I know it's a burden on the Darling Wife and I having an extra body in the house who doesn't help out willingly without being asked.If you're not paying enough rent to cover all the costs of your support (phone, car, insurance, clothing, food, share of mortgage, insurance, utilities, entertainment, etc.) you owe the family that much and more... cheerfully. Bottom line: Your family comes out of pocket some $500 a month and more at bare minimum. If you're in a metro area that minimum number could easily be north of $800 a month...To put this all in some kind of perspective if you work at minimum wage in my area you're earning (net) $1008 a month for working a full 40 hours a week... every week. So... Bottom Line: Either way you need to work both for your self respect and to support the family which supports you. You, as a human, are responsible to yourself for your own care and maintenence. Here's reality: You, now, as a teen are in what's known as a grace period with respect to society. When you get out in the world no one owes you anything. It might serve you to start acting the part of an adult by practicing now. Do the dishes willingly and voluntarily. Help out any way you can. Use this grace period effectively.
Do they make you wash dishes if you dont pay for your meal?
No. Because of insurance & business law regulations they are not allowed to have one (other then employees) in the kitchen area for any reason.
Do restaurants allow someone to wash dishes as compensation if they cannot pay?
Here’s my story. I was in San Antonio, TX just hanging out for the day. I went into a rather popular restaurant on the Riverwalk for a bit of lunch. Nothing elaborate, just a li’l something to take the edge off.I had a great server, got my order just as I wanted it, everything was delicious. He brought the check and I went to the cashier to settle up… and realized that my wallet wasn’t in my purse. Oh jeez, I thought… I must have dropped it somewhere as I was walking around. I mentally retraced my footsteps as I was lavishly apologizing to the hostess who was trying to get me checked out. But really, I was freaking out inside. “Oh my God, I’m so sorry!” Then I said, “Can you just hold my purse while I go back to my car and check to see if it might have dropped out?” The hostess just smiled reassuringly, “No worries… go and check you car, and stop back in as soon as you can.”I hustled as quickly as I could, said several silent prayers to God and also to St. Anthony— the patron saint of the city of San Antonio, and of lost or misplaced objects for his help in finding my wallet. I got back to my car, which was where I had parked it before I went to Mass that morning at the Cathedral, unlocked the door… and sure enough, there it was. My wallet was on the floor, in the little gap between my seat and the center console. It must have slipped out when my purse tipped over as I was getting out for Mass. Thank you, Father… thank you, St. Anthony!I quickly hustled back to the restaurant and found the hostess. “I found my wallet, and now I’m ready to settle my lunch tab. Sorry about that!” She smiled reassuringly again. “No worries… we already comped your lunch. You wouldn’t believe how many folks leave us without paying. I’m honestly surprised that you made it back, so thank you. Consider this our thanks for your honesty.” Okay, I was a little embarrassed, yet grateful at the same time. So, I pulled out some cash, about the amount of my lunch tab plus a regular tip, and handed it to the hostess. “In that case, ma’am, here’s my tip. Please see to it that it goes to my server and whoever else helped with that meal… along with my thanks. Y’all have a great day!” God bless Texas… :)
Cost to hire a maid to wash dishes?
If you only need her a couple of times a week, then most likely you would pay her by the hour. The going hourly rate varies considerably, depending on the area. In and around major cities, cleaning help can be as high as $18 an hour for one employee. In less affluent areas, cleaning help can be as low as $9 an hour. Typically, a maid of this sort works at least a half day (4 hours). A cleaning *service,* which sends out 3-4 people for a mere 45-60 minutes, can be as high as $75.
If your partner cooks the meal shouldn't you wash the dishes?
Do me a favor. Don’t go to your partner and tell them you asked about an issue on a public forum that’s just between you and them and that most people on the public forum think you should handle your relationship in some particular way. It’s insulting because it shows a complete lack of ability to come to an agreement with your partner and it shows that you trust stranger’s opinions more than your partner’s.The answer is it depends on what you and your partner have agreed upon. Both of you should contribute to chores, money, and time as you are able in order to make life together successful. This means in an ideal world, each person’s contribution to the relationship would be a perfect half. Typically circumstances, such as a job, disability, or outside obligations (not hobbies) cause one partner’s contribution’s to be a little more than the other’s. Nobody has an obligation that hasn’t been discussed. It is no more the woman’s responsibility to cook and watch the children than it is the man’s responsibility to mow the lawn and fix the car. It all depends on what you’ve discussed and what you’ve agreed upon. That said, please stop talking to us about it and talk to your partner. For all I know, your partner has mowed the lawn, fixed the car, and completed a 15 hour shift on her feet. If the only thing you did was get up and make eggs benedict, there’s no way I am going to tell you to make your partner also do the dishes. See how context matters?
Why do maid services refuse to wash dishes?
I used to own a maid service ~ and there's several reasons why my staff never washed dishes. 1) Time limitations. There's only so much time that a service has to clean bathrooms, vacuum the carpet, scrub floors, dust etc. Washing dishes takes away time from those other jobs ~ and in the end, most customers would rather the service spend the effort on making the floors sparkle instead of washing dishes. 2) Liability. Dishes break, and the last thing a service needs is a customer complaint how a valuable or one-of-a-kind a particular plate or cup was. I had this happen to me ~ in my case, it was a turkey platter that had a crack in it and couldn't handle soaking in hot water...I ended up forking over $200 to replace the platter which equated 2 1/2 days worth of wages. 3) Most customers don't see dish washing as "worth" the cost. At $25 (or more) an hour, would you rather have your maid clean the bathroom on hands & knees or wash dishes?
How can i keep my fake nails while iam washing dishes all day?
There are some things you can do to help. Make sure the detergent(s) you are using do not contain Lanolin. In any event, wear gloves. Don't jam your fingers in either, start them from inside out and roll the glove over your fingers. Use anything but your nails as tools...use a car key to open a can of soda. Use the edge of your index finger, instead of your fingertips, to lift a door handle. The most important is saved for last. Go to a good, established, reputable nail tech who cares about having you as a repeat customer. Most Mall salons could care less about you, or the health/condition of your nails once you pay and leave.
