当约翰还是一个小男孩的时候,他的父母意外地得到了那台邦迪克斯洗衣机。第二次世界大战期间,约翰家没有洗衣机,洗衣是一个难题。就在那个时候,他家的一个朋友应征入伍,朋友的妻子也准备一起去。在他们离家期间,约翰一家愿意为他们保管家具。令约翰一家感到惊喜的是,他们得到同意可以使用朋友家的洗衣机。“它使用起来比不用好,放在那里还会生锈。” When John was still a little boy, his parents got the Bundix washer accidentally. John did not have a washing machine during World War II and laundry was a problem. At that moment, a friend of his family was enlisted and his friend's wife was ready to go together. John was willing to keep furniture for them while they were away from home. What surprised the John family was that they had agreed to use the washing machine at their friend's house. “It's better to use than it is, it will rust there.”
