The fork gets placed alongside the knife. They sit parallel. Dinner is over. The next thing to do? Stack the dishwasher. The nerves hit. It’s time. You fail again. Fed up with being unable to pack your dishwasher?

This is for you: a 27 week course will help you master the art of packing the dishwasher. The brains behind the extensive course is an ex NASA scientist, based right here in Surry Hills.

A typical pre-course attempt at stacking the dishwasher.

“Packing the dishwasher is the bane of every woman’s existence. And in these crazy times even some men!” said the unexpectedly sexist scientist.

Dr Simon Uzcilas talks about the first time he attempted the feat, “I sent a rocket into space. But could I pack a dishwasher? No way. I found myself in a hole. I rethought everything.”

Dr Uzcilas spent the next three years devoted to the task. He enlisted a team of mathematicians and engineers from around the world.

“All experts in their field and what they have created is a foolproof system that will help anyone, from novice to expert, pack a dishwasher in less than 10 minutes. Every time.”

The results after the 27 week course.

The syllabus will cover everything from cutlery to pots and pans.
