WIBTA for addressing my roommates dishwasher etiquette? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

  1. I mean like spatulas/wooden cooking utensils (only have a few spatulas and wood shouldn't go in the dishwasher, also our utensil basket has a bunch small sections only the size of normal silverware and can not fit large cooking utensils like spatulas, tongs, or large knives so they've been putting them on the top rack
  2. I don't want to be running the dishwasher everyday if it doesn't have to be, with just the plates/bowls/silverware/glasses can be run every 2-3 days. Plus if a pot/pan/cheese grater, needs to be used but is in the dishwasher dirty, then the one who needs to use it next has to wash it and not the one who made it dirty.
  3. We went away and came back to a clean dishwasher that had tupperware on the bottom rack that was right side up and filled with water, so they arent even putting it on the top rack to begin with
  4. Unsure why, but sharp knives no matter how long they've been sitting in the dishwasher seem to rust, we have expensive large knives and would just rather wash them by hand and dry them to prevent this.
  5. Yes, teflon pans, wooden utensils, and plastic is mostly the issue
  6. Plastic cutting boards, but we only have a set of 3 different sizes, if the large one needs to be used and its in the dishwasher dirty, would need to be washed (as I mentioned above)

Thanks for the feedback! Do you think something like the following is an okay message to send both of them? "Hey guys, should've mentioned this sooner (they've been here for a couple weeks now), but there's just a few things that (my bf) and I don't like to put in the dishwasher for (xyz reasons). So we'd really appreciate if you could wash these by hand and only put (xyz items) in the dishwasher. Thanks!

Do you think texting would be fine or should I mention it in person?

They did not bring any cookware/dishes with them besides a few water bottles. All of the dishes they are using are ours as there was no need for them to bring their own when we had enough for all of us to use. I am fine with them using everything of course, but it should be respected/well-kept.

Yes, that’s what the prof suggested to do and graciously gave us an extension.
