North Carolina Man Loads Dishwasher Wrong, Regrets Mistake
Justin Sullivan/Getty ImagesA North Carolina man recently faced backlash after unknowingly loading his family's dishwasher incorrectly.
"I really thought I was doing the right thing by getting it started before bed last night," said Jerry Gibson of Charlotte. "Turns out no good deed goes unpunished."
Jerry's act of late-night selflessness turned into a morning of the silent treatment from his wife, Eileen. She reportedly scoffed audibly when she discovered Jerry's poor attempt at loading the dishwasher.
"You can't fix stupid," she said. "I've told him time and time again that the long knives can't go in the baskets with the silverware. It keeps the spinny thing from turning and nothing on the top rack gets clean."
The dust-up follows several weeks of trouble-free home life for the Gibsons. Since their only child went to college last fall, they only run the dishwasher about once a week. But a midweek visit from Eileen's mother generated more dirty dishes than normal.
"I just didn't want to leave things sitting around until tomorrow, especially since we used the dessert bowls" said Jerry, who never really cared for Eileen's mother. "Who wants to get up and deal with that in the morning?"
Jerry also refilled the dishwasher's rinse aid reservoir, which, sadly, went unnoticed.
