My daughters swore by this [Shel Silverstein philosophy](https://silverbirchpress.wordpress.com/2013/08/09/how-not-to-have-to-dry-the-dishes-poem-and-drawing-by-shel-silverstein/):  
**How Not to Have to Dry the Dishes**  
If you have to dry the dishes  
(such an awful boring chore)  
If you have to dry the dishes  
('stead of going to the store)  
If you have to dry the dishes  
And you drop one on the floor —  
Maybe they won’t let you  
Dry the dishes anymore

Success by incompetence for the win!

I’m ashamed to admit that I bought them the book and read them the poems :smack:

Embassy worker: Wonderful. Do you have a criminal record?  
Applicant: What, is that still a requirement?
