Sometimes when I have to do an annoying task, I entertain myself by pretending to be a scientist recording audio logs about how the mission to do this particular chore went horribly, horribly wrong. The kind that would be discovered by a player character next to my horribly mangled body. "Log entry 15, August 7th. There are dishes in the sink again. I don't know how long they've been there. Sarah and Professor Finch aren't responding to their walkie-talkies so I'm attempting to do them myself. There's some sort of residue on them. Organic, I believe, but I can't access the equipment to test for sure. Some of it got onto my hands. Thankfully, it seems to have washed off easily."
