Laundry
My apartment building has 4 or 5 washing machines in our sub-basement (12 floors below mine) and a number of dryers. They are used frequently, but if I time it right, I can get a few machines all to myself, throw in my coins, load my rancid clothes and then head back to my place to watch some TV. Then I have to switch to the dryer, load more coins, watch more TV, then fold and iron everything. Am I the only one who thinks that this is too much work and is well below my station in life? I'll just answer for you and say "Yes Dave, it is."
This is why I pay $.99 a pound to have my laundry washed, dried and folded. Sometimes I get mocked for doing so, but I defend my choice. My time can be better spent than waiting to switch loads and fumble with quarters and loonies. I'm a busy guy with lots of... stuff... to do. I've simplified my life by paying for a few simple luxuries, and this is one of them. Now, my next task is to find someone who will iron my shirts (a task I never seem to find time for, and I have to wear a collared shirt to work). After that, I'll just need someone to spoon feed me and dress me in the mornings. After checking on Google though, I'm not sure I could afford such a service.
