    There is a huge difference in laundry for a single guy and laundry for a whole family.

    As a single guy with modern detergents it’s one load. With a family it’s several, stains on children’s clothes are common and sometimes require special attention, and you cant leave the house for longer than an hour or else you’ll fall behind.

      I used to work as a maid, and tbh i still don’t get it. Once a week id come by and there would be a pile of laundry a couple feet tall. Id just grab a six pack of smirnoff and knock out the entire pile in 4-5 loads over a couple hours, folded and all.

      Tbh it was a ton of fun and super relaxing, I only stopped bc i built up a tolerance to smirnoff.

        I am sure there are other substances you could snort in a laundry room. No need for smirnoff when you can snort a line of Sunlight.

      My family of four did maybe 2 loads of laundry a week. Pretty damn easy to stay on top of.

      My GF has a problem with clothes, she will literally change 3 times a day fairly often and throws everything into the dirty laundry even if she only wore it for hours resulting in a massive pile of laundry really quickly. Even with that I would say doing our laundry is easy as fuck, it’s the folding and putting it all away that’s a chore.
