If one partner was wfh full time, demanding job and expected to be online usual hours of 830 - 430 with 30 min break for lunch, how much housework would you expect them to pick up?
This is my current scenario (although I am generally online before 830, and rarely log off dead at 430, middle management role which is highly demanding at the moment!)
Today I have, emptied dishwasher from the night before, put it through a wash cycle, done two loads of washing (just need to be put away), run in my lunch, nursery drop off for dd, tidied both the living room and kitchen, as well as working a full day.
Dh has been out to work (unable to wfh) worked 7 - 2, picked up dd and then moaned that I hadn't taken the recycling out! And then moaned when I stayed logged on for 10 minutes longer than I should have done.
His argument is I could have done the recycling when I went for my run (which I could have done i guess) but seen as I will also be doing dinner and probably bath and bed for dd as well, I don't feel its difficult for him to do that!
