    You’ve got to be a real lazy piece of shit to not do the dishes before you leave for a vacation.

    I always clean everything a couple days before leaving, so when I get back home, I come back to a clean home with nothing to do.

    I’m a condominium superintendent, I once had to go into all the units for smoke detector replacements. I get to one apartment and it stinks. There are dishes on the table with half eaten/rotted food. Pots on the stove that are the same. All the food in the fridge is molding, and the apartment is in general disarray.

    I had to call my boss, who in turned tried to get a hold of the owners with no success. We had to end up calling the cops, who first sent a patrol, then later a detective to get a missing persons case going. A month later, the cops contact us to inform us that the owners went on a six month trip to China and didn’t think to tell anyone. They came back a few weeks later and acted like nothing happened. Turns out they were just filthy people, not dead.

      This past year is the first time I’ve had a job that gives me vacation days. My vacation consisted of my couch and my PlayStation. That’s really all I could afford.

      This year the wife and I are going to Niagara falls (2 hours from us) for the weekend, so that’s kind of a vacation. But that’s the most I’ve been able to afford in the last 10 years.
