Family member who works in restaurant/kitchen bathes 2 times a day to avoid smelling like food.

How do you know how long her shower should be?

Not the op. Showers should be long enough to clean but short enough to leave water for others in the household.

Just ask her not to take such a long shower in the morning because there isn't enough hot water for you to shower, as well.

Otherwise, your complaint is insane. Why should anyone shower, given that they will just get dirty again the next day?

Why does she shower twice? That's the part you need to stop. She should shower when she comes home. Which should be once a day.

Can you put a clock in the bathroom?

I think she should be able to shower but keep it short if she's draining shared resources (pardon the pun).

Turn up the water heater.

I agree. It's not as if she's getting all dirty at night. Why does she need a morning shower too?

Some people feel better/fresher if they shower in the morning.

This thread is vague - "family member" - well who is it? If it's another adult, sorry, you don't have the right to dictate their shower habits.

If you're living in the same house, you need to figure out how to compromise so everyone's needs are met. You don't get to use up all the hot water.

I'd do the same. Makes perfect sense to me.

She is being courteous. My daughter worked at Starbucks. 2 showers a day was the MINIMUM. Stale coffee smells horrible. Count your blessings that your furniture and house do not smell like old food.
