Default (2008-07-10) NS-RFC: Washing dishes

When I was selling my condo a year ago - my real estate agent told me to
put my dish drainer/rack away.
I had a dishwasher, but I also did a lot of dishes by hand.

I always keep the drainer out. I know some people put theirs away -but
mine is always right next to the sink.

Her argument for putting it away was that people with dishwashers NEVER
wash dishes by hand. If it can fit -she said - it goes in the
dishwasher. She also thought that potential buyers might be put off by
the drainer or think that my dishwasher didn't work.

She also made me put practically everything I owned in storage. It
worked though - the condo sold in two months in a really slow market.
