ITT: I guess no one has this problem, which is why there is zero market for magnets and decals to indicate the status of the dishwasher.

Fwiw, I do exactly what you do with the soap. Glad I'm not the only one.

Do you wait until you have a load of dishes before loading? I try to load as I use them. In a household of 2, it may be a few days before we have enough to run the dishwasher.

I rinse my dishes off before putting them in the dishwasher. If the dishes have been in there long enough to dry (e.g. overnight), they can visually appear to be unsoiled.

Enough people have this concern that there is a market for magnets and such to put on the dishwasher to indicate whether they are clean or dirty.
