Left A Dish-washing Note For My Roommates And It Totally Backfired

I was so fed up with constantly cleaning up after my roommates. So before I left for my 12-hour night shift, I decided to leave a note. But when I finally dragged myself home this morning, a huge pile of dirty plates and dishes were waiting for me again. The exact thing my note was about. My sign was right there, probably staring at the mess just as confused as I was. It's just so ridiculous. What actually works to get them to clean up? #RoommateProblems #DirtyDishes #HelpMe #SeekingAdvice

buy your own ddon't. and wash them and keep them in your room. shouldn't be hard. clean yours each time. not theirs at all. if they run out it's on them not you. you dont. need many.

Put all the dishes into their room. Buy paper plates and either move out or find better roommates. They are the problem

Keep your clean dishes in your room. They will run out of clean dishes and have to wash them. In the meantime, search for better roommates or a new apartment

Use your own dishes and keep them locked away. That includes everything yours in the kitchen. Make them buy their own dish soap too. But food as you need it only. Keep everything empty.
