My daughter asked why I always turn on the dishwasher but leave her breakfast bowl in the sink

I told her it's a probationary period.

The dishwasher gets the dishes that showed up on time. The breakfast bowl that appeared at 7:53 when we needed to leave at 7:45? That one sits in the sink and reflects on its choices.

Punchline

It'll get loaded tomorrow. Maybe. If it demonstrates better time management.
