No Kitchen Gnome
It still surprises me how many people still don’t clean up after themselves at work – you know who you are…
There is a diswasher – put your dishes in it. It’s only a few centimetres from the bench top so don’t give me the excuse that you’re busy and in a hurry, just put them in there. I don’t care if you’re a senior manager – use your mouth if you don’t have opposable thumbs.
Clean the chunks off your bowl/plate. The dishwasher can only do so much, and scraping off dried porridge it does not do. Rissotto with lots of parmesan may be tasty but the left overs sitting there all afternoon is not appetising.
If you spill it, clean it up. If you use it, put it away. Cupboard doors aren’t too hard to close either.
And there always seems to be a person opening up a new bottle of milk instead of using the last of the current bottle – recycling phobia?
There is no company maid. Your mum doesn’t work with you, not that she should do clean up for you anyway. There is no mystical kitchen gnome that goes around magically cleaning up your mess.
And no, I’m not said gnome but thanks for asking.
(By the way, I forgot to mention when I first posted this that the underwear thing is from the South Park episode where they had Underpants Gnomes.)

Kitchen Gnome wishes he was stealing underwear

LOL! No company maid??? Stinkers!!! Oh actually wait, you’re right we didn’t have one either – a cleaner yes, but no maid to put dishes aways. Lazy stinkers!
Stealing CLEAN underwear right?
Hairdressing really? Cool, love learning lil tidbits here and there! You brave girl!!! I couldn’t do the perm. My mom did the perm for years…and years…didn’t like it on her (though I never told her) thank goodness she stopped.

Mum’s always had a perm since I can remember. She even gave me one when I was about 10, and I *hated* it! I looked like an Asian girl version of the young Michael Jackson.

Ooooo man it makes so much more sense now! It was familiar but I couldn’t figure out why.
