Map recurring tasks and capacity
See this course’s project requirements
A nonlegal household operating agreement for fictional roommates covering access, chores, shared spaces, guests, quiet time and review of responsibilities.
Keep your working files in your own notebook or software. Save a private description, checklist, and work link in My Proof.
What to include
- Preference/rule distinction and compliant access clause.
- Workload allocation with time and capacity.
- Observable task standards.
- Shared-space and guest routines.
- Missed-task process and changed-condition revision.
Review and revise
Use these criteria to check your work and choose what to improve.
- Agreement separates preferences from required access and exit conditions.
- Workload totals fit stated time and lifting capacity without assuming equal task suitability.
- Task standards and table/guest routines describe observable completion and shared consent.
- Missed-task process and revised shift times show agreed owners, backups and follow-up.

The idea in everyday life
Weekly tasks: kitchen 30 minutes, bathroom 40, floor 20, trash 10. Kim has 60 minutes and cannot lift heavy bags; Lee has 60 minutes and can handle the bag. These are fictional preferences and capacities.
Equal numbers of chores can conceal unequal effort; make the workload visible.
Map recurring tasks and capacity — supplied practice
Equal numbers of chores can conceal unequal effort; make the workload visible.
Weekly tasks: kitchen 30 minutes, bathroom 40, floor 20, trash 10. Kim has 60 minutes and cannot lift heavy bags; Lee has 60 minutes and can handle the bag. These are fictional preferences and capacities.
1. Step 1
Sum the required time.
You should see: 30+40+20+10 = 100 minutes.
2. Step 2
Assign Kim bathroom and floor, and Lee kitchen and trash.
You should see: Kim 60; Lee 40; neither exceeds the stated capacity.
3. Step 3
Record the lifting constraint and a backup discussion.
You should see: Kim is not assigned the heavy bag; backup must be agreed rather than assumed.
4. Step 4
Explain why task count alone is insufficient.
You should see: Each has two tasks, but the estimated time differs.
What to finish
A task allocation table with minutes, limits and backup questions.
Watch for this
Do not assume a stated limitation makes someone unable to contribute.
How can I tell I understand it?
Support each lesson-specific criterion with your supplied-case artifact: I totaled all recurring work.; I compared assignments with capacity.; I preserved the lifting constraint.
