It is my pet peeve to have the dishwasher filled haphazardly.

I believe in two things: try to keep similar items together for ease in unloading (example: if you have small and large plates, start the large plates from one end of the row and the small plates from the other end so that you can easily grab multiple plates at a time) and fill from the back to the front.  This way, when the front fills up, it's obvious that the d/w is full and it's time to run it.  Filling from front to back means that, inevitably, someone will open the dishwasher to put something in and it will be full.

Annoying.

Sure, the person to put in the last fitting dish should run it, but filling from back to front is still a grand idea.

  1. I thought I was the only one! I totally agree! Joe used to get mad at me for rearranging, but he just doesn't understand how to arrange things to maximize washing!
