After going abroad to study, several students have to grapple with culture shock and other kinds of adjustments. They have to often learn how to be independent, which includes juggling chores and other duties along with their studies. For those who are not already used to it, this type of multitasking may not come easy. Recently, one such student took to X to share something he seemed to be struggling with: doing the dishes. His post has gone viral, receiving a wide range of reactions on the platform. Several people have criticised the X user, while others have found his dilemma relatable.

"Abroad or India, dishes don't get washed on their own. The only difference is someone used to do it for you back home. And you would expect someone else to do it for you after marriage. If you think this isn't fun, imagine doing this every day your whole life."
