Jobs that you hate doing that only take a few minutes

[SalemShadow]

I can't stand cleaning the cats litter tray of making sodding pack lunches even though they only take a few minutes to do. What jobs do you hate doing?

Dishwasher, putting clean clothes away, emptying the bin, lunch boxes, emptying lunch boxes.....

Making packed lunches. Brushing my teeth and wrapping Christmas presents.
I love gift wrapping but hate wrapping Christmas presents

For plug hole hair in the bath buy a hair catcher.! You still have to clean it out/ wash it etc but my hair curls neatly around it and it's easier to deal with. Great invention for showers.

Putting away clean washing
DUSTING!!!! I hate dusting

Grating the cheese!

Brushing my teeth. My toothbrush times it in quadrants and it takes aeons. I do squats and lunges to pass the time.

Cleaning the lint filter on the tumble dryer.

Putting petrol in my car.

Doing the online shop - I always get distracted and take forever.
Bringing in the online shop - I hate waiting for the man then struggling to unpack it into bags now they don't have any. They never pack the shopping right and put heavy things in with light crushable things so you have to pack multiple bags at a time and the driver always stands there and shuffles on his feet like I'm holding him up when there's only me for it, he doesn't/won't help and I'm going as quick as I can!
Unloading the dishwasher. Been known to wash it through twice because I really don't want to unload it.
Hanging up washing. I love watching it all blowing in the breeze in summer but if it's in the house? hate it.
Picking up the dog poo. Ugh. Have to do it but hate doing it and will put it off until I absolutely can not put it off anymore.
Taking out the rubbish/recycling.
Changing the bedding. Ugh, such a struggle. I love winter bedding so much, love snuggling down and even putting the electric blanket on.... hate putting bedding on the actual bed though.

Absolutely all of the above!
Plus cleaning hubby’s wee drips off the toilet floor because he flatly refuses to accept they are his.

Getting petrol

Changing the toilet roll.
Emptying the bin and putting the rubbish out.
Putting clean washing away (currently have piles of clean washing in my living room waiting to be sorted and organised - promised myself it’s wednesday afternoon’s job!).
Clearing the funky hair/dirt/slime from the bath plug hole - it’s satisfying but fucking gross!
Shaving any part of my body. I do it, because I like how it feels after, but usually wait until my son has commented on my “bearded minnie” in a busy public toilet (happened at the London baby show a few weeks ago and I could hear all the other women in the stalls or waiting to go, absolutely cracking up!) or when I have a midwife appointment (21wks pregnant) just in case!
Changing my bed sheets. I wash them once a week or more often sometimes, and have spares, but often go days without putting clean ones on and sleep on a bare mattress... it’s more something I’ve begun to hate since being pregnant again coz I can’t move this time AND my DP ran off with OM (yes, other man) just after I happily announced I was pregnant... so I am struggling a bit with some everyday type chores... like breathing lol!
I have to say, I am so glad my DS (4yrs) school provide all school lunches and drinks and everything like that - I couldn’t be doing a packed lunch everyday!!!!! Find it hard enough doing a packed lunch for him on a Sunday for dance school let alone every single day - you women are mum goals and I take my lazy hat off to you!!!

Hoovering the living room rug as it’s always covered with cat hair and food crumbs by the next day (4 cats and twin toddlers are a bugger to clean up after every day).

Washing pots causes my atopic dermatitis to go mental so my fingertips end up looking as though I’ve put them through a shredder 😩

Separating my recycling and bottles etc - I do it every evening but my neighbours just chuck everything in their domestic waste bins so I wonder why I bother but can’t bring myself not to 😂

Washing up. Nobody else does it so it's always left to me.

I hate putting petrol in the car!

Using my mobile phone, I hate it - I’m just not good with phones arrrrggghhhh ... great thread tho x

Cleaning up cat sick,
Plucking my eyebrows,
De fuzzing my hairy legs.

Urgh basically everything housework related!

Cleaning dishwasher filter and putting salt in - beyond rank

Hanging out washing. Isn't it enough that I sort it and put it in the machine.

Emptying the fridge of out of date stuff

Drying my hair.

Filling up the car with petrol - soooo boring

Changing the sheets

I used to have a cleaner who'd do a lot of these (not my hair or car obviously!!) but have had to cut back so it's back to earth with a bump. Telling myself it's satisfying. It's not!!

Pretty much everything everyone else has said!

getting bank statements & bills & income invoices to send off to the accountant (I am so disorganised) for them to do tax

Checking the tyre pressures...

I have found that if I do jobs I hate first I am pleasantly surprised... it's hard to explain, but say for example when I change the bed the worst part for me is the duvet cover. If I do that first (always used to do it last) I sort of forget I have done it and am pleasantly surprised when I get to that part (again) as it is already done! It may be something to do with my shocking memory though...

Removing the hair from the bath plug 🤮🤮🤮

Getting ready for bed - when I’m tired but I need to take out my contact lenses, brush my teeth and take my make up off! Such an effort but only takes a couple of minutes!

I hate having to make packed lunches too. I agree with the pp who said about taking the plastic lid bit off milk, and ketchup too. Not a fan of changing the litter tray either tbh. Putting the recycling our, emptying the little food caddy does my head in.

Taking the teabag out of a cup of tea

Oh and making hubby’s bait ( packed lunch) just because he can’t be arsed!
