In our family, since my wife work full time, I am taking care of our three children and stay at home, washing the dishes is one of my main duties as a master mom.
In many evenings, sweeping the floor and washing the dishes take time. Sometimes, I finish the job at ten and I have no time to study, as I am tired already.
Today, I am practicing the FIFO system, which I have learned in Economics when I was a university student. In economics, we have four systems as part of business management;
FIFO: First In-First Out
FILO: First In-Last Out
LIFO: Last In-First Out
LILO: Last In-Last Out
For my cleaning the dishes, I am using FIFO, which is First In-First Out, and it works well. Any dishes come up with dirty; I try to clean as soon as finish eating of kids or adults. First In-First Out! Very good.
Just sharing with you about one of my combination methods, which is between school knowledge and household works. Actually, you can use these methods at wherever you want. Have Fun!
