Ep #02: Dear "Dish Pan Hands"

Dear Mary,

My partner got to sleep late, which meant I slept late and now I’m writing to you because the truck to pick up the recycling passed our house while I was in the bathroom so we missed it and I am asking myself, look it’s 2020, exactly how much housework am I supposed to do?!

My partner is not great at these things normally which is fine because he works all day at an office and I am happy to help out since I work from home.

With the pandemic he is at home all day every day. I’m doing twice the dishes (why is my favorite egg pan never clean?!) and I feel like I’m handling most of the chores.

Is this reasonable? I don’t want to be a jerk while he is adjusting but I don’t want to be taken advantage of either.
