I have a rule that I point out when anyone arrives: you can stay and feel at home but do not make more work for me. I have enough work. Most people respect it and see to themselves but some interpret it as: "be as much of a slob here as I am in my own house".]

I pointed out as they don't live with us, they were guests. And I refrained from saying if they were family I would tell them to do their fair share. There is so much more I could say about the last weekend, but I won't because it wouldn't be fair on MrW, but grrrrrrr. Next time they stay there will be ground rules]. I am not being unreasonable in asking you to let me know if you're going to be late for our meeting, so you can all stop looking at me like I'm asking for a cut of your salary.
