1. Changing bedding. Especially quilt covers
I hate changing sheets but duvet covers are easy, just turn them inside out, put your hands down to the corners and then you get the satisfying shake out process as it all fits perfectly.
Chipping mortar off bricks.
Painting. It's messy, time consuming and dull AF.
I want to do a bit at a time because its so mind numbing but because then the prep and clear down is such a disproportionally large chunk of the time spent on it I feel like I always need to do more actual painting to make it worthwhile. Catch 22.
Wow I really feel this here is one thread that can unite us 🤣
Had a laminator in the last place i worked. It was seen as ay treat to get out of real work* and would try to invent reasons to use it. *not that there was much of that going there either.
Removing hair from the bath plug hole. What hair I have is short (number 3 on the top, 2 on the sides) but I have a wife and two daughters so lots of long hair gets stuck in the plug hole. If I leave it too long it's manky when I pull out the foot long mass.
That and cleaning the bath - is it too much to ask people who shave in the bath to rinse it down afterwards?
+1 duvet covers
It just makes me unfathomably angry. Normally because I'm doing it at 11pm having not realised the bedding was still in the tumble dryer when I want to go to bed.
I refuse to believe there's an easy method.
Weeding the block pave driveway. I don't like putting nasty stuff down so I guess that's the price I have to pay. Hanging up the washing as I have a "system" which means it takes longer than it perhaps needs to. I also seem to be chief pot washer/dryer/putter away-er. Cleaning the inside of the family car. Nooks and crannies galore and "carpet" that resuses to give up whatever has been dropped on it.
Oh yeah, doing jobs for my elderly neighbour instead of doing stuff around my own house because his kids are not pulling their weight. Not that I help myself there, popped round the other day to deal with a small bit of ivy amd ended up spending the afternoon there and filled a one ton bag with clippings from his garden.
