reminds me a pic i took at now former job 15 years ago
That looks like the next guys problem kinda vibe
I worked in such a place once. The dishwasher was always running at max capacity, but it wasn’t fast enough for the manager who kept yelling at me. No one but me stayed in the dishwasher position for more than three days. Eventually they brought in an old “specialist” dish washer from years back, and he showed me the “right” way to do it.
This guy seriously loaded the dish rack onto the conveyor, then sprayed the dishes with a hose while forcefully dragging the rack through the dishwasher in five seconds instead of the standard minute. The dishes weren’t even close to clean, it was disgusting.
They were under new management a couple of months later.
I was told not to complain about dirty dishes at a part time job once, because they couldn’t get anyone to wash dishes otherwise. The guy complained when I put steam pans with caked garbage inside back on the dish line.
This one of the reasons that most of the recipes I try are one pot/pan recipes, there’s way less to clean up. I enjoy cooking but have executive dysfunction issues and will leave all those dishes in the sink for weeks on end.
Honestly, cooking while cleaning and being efficient with dishes is a very unappreciated skill. I cook up stuff where I can rinse and throw it directly in a dishwasher, or use just one pan or one pot, clean knives and spatulas after use and put them back.
You end up spending like 5 minutes doing the extra dishes where this doesn’t work out.
This is why I like my dual level countertop air fry/oven. Just line the pans in aluminum foil, oil, toss some protein on the bottom tray and some potato’s and veggies on the top and hit bake. Then wash the cutting board etc and it beeps that its done and straight onto a plate, gtap the foil and toss it if it’s too dirty and the pans are nice and clan
2 hours to cook, 2 minutes to eat, 2 hours to clean it all up
One must imagine Sisyphus hungry
That’s about how my kitchen looks right now. And I just made something quick and simple.
Did you make a quick and simple earthquake?
“15 minute recipes”
The previous night start by preparing …
You found the recipe? I’m still reading about how the recipe reminds them of warm summer evenings walking along the banks of the river, shortly after they adopted their rescue pup but before the birth of their first child. I’m sure the ingredients list will turn up soon.
But I’m sure that the pup really rescued them.
This is why I treasure one-pot recipes.
This is why I treasure my wok.
One of my nephews is this. Cooks something but in the process used a lot of pots and pans and utensils, and didn’t bother washing up afterwards.
the best recipes have no more than 3 ingredients, and the instruction is literally to just mix them cold. if you have to heat some up, do not use more than 1 pan.
water, salt, pepper - delicious!

Recipes should list what equipment you need. This is not unreasonable.
I tried that one. 30minutes my ass.
I refuse to make anything with over 6 ingredients.
I had never thought about it but me too. My meals almost always look like this:
- Canned or precooked protein
- Boiled Grain
- microwave steamed vegetable
- Canned beans
- Seasoning
- Like 10ml of a fat
This sounds nasty when you genericize it but tonight I had mac and cheese with rotisserie chicken and broccoli. If I threw some sizzle words in there you’d think it was fancy.
An al dente artisinal pasta folded into a rich, velvety emulsified cheese reduction, tossed with succulent hand-pulled rotisserie chicken and vibrant, flash-steamed crisp-tender broccoli florets.
See? Fancy.
This is so true lol
yeah it sucks. but next time you cook that recipe or something similar you’ll have a better idea of which dishes you need, yeah? plus having fewer dishes to wash can be extremely motivating, lol
plus having fewer dishes to wash can be extremely motivating, lol
Yes, it motivates me to order takeout
