Original text - Engels - Being the managers of everything:

Being the managers of everything:
sometimes I do know exactly where his keys are, but I let him stew until he finds them."

Complaints, instead of a clear request for help: "unless I'm out of underwear, it doesn't cross my mind that the laundry's piling up. Doing over what's already been done: my wife will wait until I leave the kitchen, and then I hear her rearranging the things I've just put in the dishwasher. Or after I've finished the laudry, she'll refold the towels! How can it matter so much?"
