Well, now it's your turn. What I want you to do here is give you an opportunity to create some of your own user stories. But let me set the stage. Picture your current living situation. You might live by yourself in an apartment or condo, or you might have a family. You might have roommates. Whatever the situation is your current living situation. Think about a room in your home. Bathroom. Maybe it's a bedroom. Maybe perhaps it's the kitchen. Think about a room in your home. What I want you to do is write some user stories around cleaning a particular room in your home. Be specific. Give them a title. Give them a description. Give them acceptance criteria again for cleaning a room in your home. So I'll kick us off. I'm going to give you an example here. Okay, so check this out. As a father of five, I want the boys shared toilet to be clean so that our guests are not afraid of using it. Sorry, I chuckled. Just because it's my life. Acceptance criteria is the toilet is scrubbed, the water is clear, there's no visible rings in the bowl. Sides and base are visibly free of. Well, they're clean. And then I would title this one Boys Bathroom Toilet. Now, there are many more stories I could create for cleaning the boys bathroom for sure, but this is specific to the boys bathroom toilet. All right, so now you give it a shot for your particular situation.
