    That sounds like a disaster. All it will take is finding a single cool looking doodad and the entire cleaning crew will be occupied for hours

      every room has only a finite number of cool doodads at any given time. the room will be cleaned eventually, it just might take a little longer. not to mention that the extra time will be spent discussing cool doodads and will thus be time well spent.

        That’s assuming you can only spend a finite amount of time on each cool doodad and can’t switch between them.

          you bring up a good point that my original comment blindly assumed the cleaner would be a mortal. if they are immortal and thus able to spend an infinite amount of time on each doodad, then we might be in some real trouble here. depending on how interesting the doodads are, there’s a chance the room will be occupied forever. the only solution i can think of would be to lure the cleaner out with increasingly cooler doodads, but this may be easier said than done.

    I get focused on small things, which makes me an inefficient cleaner. Sure that drawer is going to be the most organized it has ever been, but there are bigger fish to fry.

    I just need someone following me around to ask questions like “Are you sure deep cleaning the microwave is the most effective use of your time right now?”

      Well after years and years of not cleaning it, I guess the few times a decade we get to do it then it better be deeply clean 😄

      “Shut the fuck up, Terrance! You don’t know what I need right now!”

      I named my helper Terrance.

      this hits close to home….
      i have to keep reminding myself: clean everything just a little bit, and then a little bit more, and then again, and then you can meticulously organize some box of stuff you barely use…

    Their filing system will be incompatible with mine and we will both hide each other’s things in plain sight.

    Then you return home to find all your stuff was put away in wrong places and have a complete meltdown because you can’t find anything when you need it.

        Yeah, but now you can blame yourself for agreeing to this stupid idea instead of blaming yourself for not cleaning your house. An infinitely worse experience.

      The word you‘re searching for is „autism“.

      This is a joke, kinda. I‘m autistic and I like to talk about it. Have a nice day. :)
