Poll: One ridiculous thing you'd pay someone to come do

Stole this from another board, but I thought it was cute:

 What is one thing that you just HATE HATE HATE doing that everyone else would think ridiculous to find out you're paying someone to come take care of (not just general house cleaning)?

Re: Poll: One ridiculous thing you'd pay someone to come do

  • I have a few! 

    - I would pay someone to put away my clothes.  I already pay someone to fold them now and I wish the final step was included lol.  They sit in the basket folded and taunting me.  I don't know why I hate doing it so much, it doesn't even take long to put them away!

    - Making the bed. 

    - Dishes (yes,I own a dishwasher). 

    I think that's it for now :)

     

  • Only 2 things that I can think of right now but I am sure there is much more. Here goes....

    Driving - If I could hire a chauffeur I would be oh so happy

    Clean the tub - I don't mind the rest of the house cleaning but for some reason I dread cleaning the tub

     

     

  • drive me around, for sure.

    and blowdry my hair. I LOVE when someone else dries my hair for me- I can never make it look that good on my own. 

  • Traffic is the worst part of my day - so if we're talking ridiculous, forget driving, I want a helicopter to fly me around!

    Also, someone to take my dog out a bunch of times a day.

    Oh and can I pay someone to finish car shopping for me, please? I loathe this process.

  • I would love for someone to do  my hair and makeup all the time. I love getting it done.

    I would also love a chef. 

    I actually enjoy doing all 3 of those things, but the luxury would be nice!

  • I DO pay someone to iron for me.  I hate ironing, and for the past couple of yrs have someone do it for me.  It is worth every penny for me!  If I had to choose b/w the ironing lady and the cleaning lady... hands down, I'd keep the ironing lady.  But since I'm not making a decsion, I'll keep them both.  : )

  • I need one of thos executive/personal assistant to do all my misc errans.  Especially since I can't do them during the week.  You know...like my gifts for ppl, take clothes to dry cleaner, send out mail, uhmm...grocery shopping.  All the things that take up too much time!!! My life would be sooo much easier w/a executive/personal assistant. 
  • Picking up dog poop from the yard. 3 little dogs = mass amounts of little piles of poop.

    And we are actually having a person come out this week to give us an estimate because I can't bend over as it is and will be even less inclined in a few months when I also have a newborn.

  • Cleaning the bath tub!!! Everytime I clean it, I wake up the next day with the worst back pain from bending over and scrubbing.  I also hate ironing!!!  It's my own fault really, because I get frustrated ironing! I want the shirt to come out sooo perfect, that it just becomes tedious and annoying!!!! 
  • Oh man the driving and hair and makeup!  I hate those too.  My hair never looks as good as when a salon does it, I don't think I will ever learn. 

    This is a fun poll :) 

  • I think mine would be blow drying my hair. I absolutely hate it! I have contemplated doing it once a week at a cheap place.. but it's not really worth the time for me each week. 

     

    I also don't mind doing dishes, but I hate drying them and putting them away.
