“I was thinking they’ve been helping us a lot through this whole pandemic, and I thought why don’t we help them, you know?” said Christian. “All day, every day the nurses here, they deal with the pandemic like COVID-19 and they want to get home from work, so we thought we would make it a little bit easier for them by cleaning off their cars for them.”
克里斯蒂安说:“我在想他们在这场流行病中帮了我们大忙,我想我们为什么不帮助他们,你知道吗?全天,每天这里的护士们都在应对像新冠疫情的流行病,他们想下班回家,所以我们想我们可以帮他们洗车,让他们轻松一点。”
