The actual washing of the dishes we have automated, not the loading unloading, folding of clothes and organizing them in my closet. I spend at least 1 hour a week on that stuff… ~52hours per year I could be doing art and writing.



1 hour a week means you live alone. Add a partner and a kid or two, and someone will be spending one hour a day on unloading and sorting laundry into right wardrobes.

(On average. Realistically, it's more like a day and a half every two weeks or something).

Chores are terrible life suckers, and I for one subscribe to the notion of eliminating them with technology.
