Our dishwasher

Yes, we have a dishwasher in India. There is one style of dishwasher and everyone who has a dishwasher has the same model. The really interesting thing was that when the plumber installed it no one knew what it was. It was just amazing that they were hooking up something which they had no clue about. The dishwasher can not go under the counter top as the counter top is about one inch too short. So the dishwasher stands next to the counter top which is no problem, except for the drain hose...normally I just put the drain hose in the drain hose at night and turn it one. Except last nights, yes you guessed it. I forgot to put the drain hose in the drain, just left in on the counter and woke up to water everywhere. What a mess! So now the plumber will permanently fix the house to the drain. There happens to be a small gap between the counter top and cabinet door that I wanted him to run the hose through but I was told there would not be enough water pressure for the water to drain out but now we know for a fact that this is not true. There is plenty of pressure and I had the mess to prove it!
