A big thank you to all the drivers/slugs

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I have slugged off/on for the past 16 years to the Pentagon.  I've finally had it with the traffic back/forth to work and moved myself to Arlington and near the metro.  I still have a lot of years to work and don't want to spend a large chunk of my day sitting on 95.  

	So I just wanted to thank all the drivers I have ridden with over the past 16 years.  And also want to thank all the riders I have picked up over the years.  Slugging/people aren't perfect but when it works it works well.

	savannahr1, Good for you on moving closer to work. I bought my place up here years ago even though I could of bought further out where it was cheaper and it was well worth buying closer in. You'll love not spending time on the road each day. You'll get home at a decent time with the sunlight. Won't have to worry about inclement weather and using your leave to take off because of it. You can make medical appointments early and not lose alot of leave because of the distance. Don't know what time you usually got home but I bet you won't know what to do with the extra hour or two of free time now that you have it. CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!! You did a great service by eliminating one more car from the traffic. VOTE HOT!!!! SO GAS PASSERS LIKE ME WON'T ANNOY YOU!!! whoever smealt it dealt it!!!!

	I have lived in springfield and alexandria, and LOVED the 20 minute drive home. Granted it now takes me 1-2 hours to get to woodbridge if leaving at 6pm but hey, the $20 saved on rent isnt worth the extra gas money. Woodbridge is cheap, but not THAT much cheaper. When our lease is up, I am SOO moving closer to my job. Wherever that ends up being.
