One thing I'm thankful for......your tax $ at work. In a good way.



In my barracks laundry rooms we have had old, broken and incredibly disgusting washing machines. In any of the 4 laundry rooms we have there are upwards of 10-12 machines in each and no more than 3 worked in any given room, making it difficult to wash clothes due to the number of people. Also, the insides were rusted and would stain whites and the "clean" laundry smelled horribly of urine.


Yesterday, huge trucks unloaded our brand new washers and they were installed within hours. When I washed my clothes this evening, I could smell the Tide detergent I had used. Arguably, one of the greatest smells ever.

Good for you! I didn't realize the situation was so bad. Your grandfather B. just purchased a new one. The old one was leaking large amounts of water out the bottom.

Yeah, the laundering situation has always been a sketchy one up until now.
