There is a correct way to load a dishwasher. Ananya’s haphazard method makes no sense
I don’t really fight with my partner, Ananya, except over this: I believe there is a correct way to load and unload a dishwasher, and she flatly refuses to agree.
Ananya doesn’t rinse plates before she loads them. It only takes two seconds to run something under the tap, but she doesn’t. Then there’s the way she puts things in. In most dishwashers, the water is sprayed up from the bottom. Bowls need to go in upside down, otherwise water never reaches the insides properly and you end up with crockery full of dirty water that can’t drain out. Similarly, dishes shouldn’t be stacked on top of each other. It’s basic physics.
