The five-column document not only allocated tasks but also included hilarious reasons explaining the importance of each chore. One entry humorously noted, “Pay the gas bill on time, or we might end up cooking dinner over a campfire in the living room,” while another quipped, “You’re the fridge boss. Keep it cool or face the wrath of melting ice cream.”
The woman captioned the post, “Welcome to Bengaluru, where flatmate duties are documented like a corporate project and the home gods may require their own Slack channel to weigh in on our mess!”
Her post quickly went viral, gaining over 67,000 views on X and sparking amusing responses from users.
One person shared a WhatsApp chat with their flatmate, joking, “Didi ne sirf dough chor diya hai. Iska bhatura banana padega” (The cook just left dough; we’ll have to make the bhaturas ourselves).
An X user commented, “Honestly this could either be the best thing ever or by day two this is in the trash.”
Another user compared it to how boys distribute their chores. “I guess boys are better at it; if someone wants to do the work, they do it; otherwise, no one does. Someday, all of us together decide to do it. Going on for over 3 years,” he wrote
The post perfectly captures the essence of Bengaluru’s unique blend of work culture and everyday life, where even household chores are managed with the precision of a corporate task.
