About 2 years ago, when all of our bathrooms needed to be restocked with toilet paper and our kids were of a certain age that I felt they could easily distribute it, I came up with the perfect name for that job.
Probably we had just had a child who had had a visit from the tooth fairy. Because the name of the toilet paper distributor is The Toilet Paper Fairy.
The Toilet Paper Fairy is the person who magically fills all the bathrooms with toilet paper so when we need a new roll, it is magically under the sink or in the basket for our use. I'm fairly sure it's because of the title that this is a fairly coveted role in our home. I've never had a kid tell me no, so even when the older kids have gotten over the magic of being the toilet paper fairy, I've got younger ones who think it's a cool job. They get to be a fairy!
Moral of the story: think up cool names for the boring jobs in your home and maybe your kids will learn to like it more. Maybe.
