It really is all laundry all the time

[conuly]

Person A: You know you're supposed to finish the laundry if you start it during your shift!

Me, silently: Don't think of it as my three loads of laundry that I didn't finish during my shift, think of it as your three loads of laundry that I got started for you. Though really, if Person B had done her laundry during her shift like she should have then neither of us would be having this conversation today.

(There was no reason for all four of the women to have their hampers literally overflowing with clothes. Somebody, or more like several somebodies, clearly has been falling down on the job here.)

I’ll just talk to person B next week and tell her that she doesn’t need to do the laundry, but she does need to get it out of their rooms before midnight - I don’t want to go creeping around in there once they’re asleep.

Fair, sometimes it's better/easier to just rearrange tasks or change tactics to smoothly get a (more) favourable end result.
