The other day, my very expensive Bosch dishwasher — ye know, the one that is supposed to be indestructible and survivied this — made a funny noise at the end of its cycle. So, I opened the door, popped my head in, but unable to see or smell anything untoward I completely forgot about it and emptied it like the domestic goddess I am.
In fact, I didn’t think anything of it. Until it came to putting it on again the next day.
When it wouldn’t blooming work. No matter how may times I opened and closed the door, pressed the buttons, it wouldn’t work. Nothing. Nada.
Dishwasher says nooooooooooooooo!
It was, of course, jam packed full of pasta splattered plates, sticky chocolate milk sippy cups and cereal stained bowls. Can anyone say, ewwwww?
I called the hubby who told me not to worry and that he would check on it when he got home from work. He then continued to dissertate on the merits of telling me about said noise straight away. Whatever!
When he got home, he realised it was a bigger job than originally anticipated. My husband, ever the procrastinator, kept saying he would get to it. Thankfully, we had dinner at my mum’s a couple of times and had some . . . . ahem, paper plates handy.
So, cue four days forward when I decided enough was enough. My hands that do dishes were not softer than soft and just couldn’t take it anymore and I told him it was his turn to do the dishes by hand. How long do you think it took the buffoon to fix the dishwasher?

It took him less than a minute.
Look at him go!!!
I don’t do dishes either. I use paper plates and recycle them. Saves on water dontchaknow.
What was it in the end? Also have a Bosch dishwasher that no longer beeps at the end of its cycle and rarely cleans 100% so am waiting for it to die before I call someone out for it…..
Yeah, what was it in the end???? I get made fun of here cause I rinse my pots nearly clean and THEN put them in the dishwasher – I like to keep it nice and clean!!!! Well done for using the paper plates, I just can’t get away with using them at all, even at parties, it’s like I have to relearn how to eat properly off them (they’re very bendy and hard to cut your food up on) !!!!! Glad it’s fixed!!!!! Hero husband to the rescue – eventually!!!
See I would’ve used it as an excuse for a new dishwasher at the husband’s expense.
Hmmm. Shame on hubby. I hope it’s working again.
