That’s fine.

Don’t be a douche and put almost or totally empty containers back in pantries and shelves.

Do most stay at home parents interrupt the working parent with non time sensitive bs like this during work hours? If so why and why don’t they respect the work/personal time boundary?

If he were working and I were retired I wouldn’t bother him with trivia like this during the work day. He doesn’t respect my job hours even though I only work from home once or twice a week.

I feel you. My husband pulled me out of the shower once because the diapers were still in the box and not in the basket on the changing table.
Just deal with it. If it’s a repeated issue, then bring it up later.

You both are experiencing "first world problems" if this is what your struggles in life are like.

Sorry, I'm Team Spouse on this one. My late DH routinely left the smallest amount of whatever (pizza, oj, nuts) in the container because he didn't want to be the one who finished it. Leaving a small amount is so much worse. His roommate from his bachelor days calls this behavior "Pulling a Scott".

Did you say anything to him or just came here to complain?

OP what’s the issue? Is your work more important than a harmonious home?

Leaving less than a serving behind just so you don't have to be responsible for cleaning up and replacing an item is so fratty. Just clean up after yourself and there's nothing to say at any time. It's not that deep, bruh.

Did he ignore the skull and crossbones DO NOT DISTURB sign you put on your office door? Did you compulsively look at the text or email?

I’d rather get briefly interrupted than get the 45-minute blow-by-blow replay of her workday that wife provides every day.

Is this your only problem?

A little on the nose, tho

This is unacceptable. Why did you marry such a POS. File for divorce before it’s too late.

That’s your husband. Figure it out.
