Assign Away Your Laundry

Posted by Marie on August 25, 2008

Laundry is a cyclical task. It seems like an easy thing to do, but then why is it always such a chore? Before I had my in-unit washer and dryer, I used to dread lugging all that weight to the laundry room or laundry mat.

Even with the washer and dryer right in my living space, it’s a huge waiting game. I have to interrupt whatever I’m doing to transfer the load from machine to machine and to put away the ones that are done.

Something that seems so simple ends up being a huge time drain.

Luckily, laundry is one of the most efficient ways to use a personal assistant. Since there is all that wait time, the assistant should be given other tasks to do in between loads. Whether it is other cleaning needs orĀ  getting your bills paid, you are getting multiple things done during the same time period.

This makes the time cost effective and doubly productive. As a bonus, a trusted personal assistant can have all this done in your absence. Imagine the joy of coming home to a closet full of clean clothes.
