I know every house has some lazy guys, mine has a lot, and I get tired of being more or less the house maid. I have no problem getting in peoples faces about chores and nagging but we still don't have any good system in place having tried at least 3 or 4 different ones under different house managers over the past 2 years. Fines on house bills haven't been very effective since a lot of the guys just give the bill to their parents and I'm not really sure how to enforce social probation.

Any help?
