Slugging Success Stories

Two years and counting for me.

Caught a ride from a Hybrid driver after waiting in a rain and hail storm for 45 minutes

Rode home with a young women who sang the entire Evanescence album (loud and poorly) and talked about her Naked Wednesday's with her sister, her drug habit, and the fact that she has poor depth perception without her glasses (that she was not wearing)..

Routinely smack my husband awake when his snoring begins to be apparent..

Was told a great affordable place to have our wedding and reception,used the place, and rode with the same person again almost 6 months later and was able to say thank you!!

Occasionally fall asleep only to wake up with my mouth wide open and leaning drastically to one side...

I LOVE SLUGGIN'!!

:'}

Seven years now picking up in the am and pm and no negative experiences to speak of. The woman who has fallen asleep and snorts when she snores EVERY TIME I pick her up is as bad as it gets - and even she is barely tolerable.

I have been slugging for about 4 years, both driving and riding. I have had 99.9% great experiences. Oddly enough, its only this site where I have bad interactions with other slugs. Goes to show you that people talk a tougher game then they play.

I have met all types of people, and have enjoyed all the experiences, from hearing stories of drooling slugs, to those that break wind in the cars in the morning. I find them all hilarious.

The one time I thought I was really in for it (red eyed driver, empty prescription bottles in the console.) turned out to be one of the best rides. Turned out the guy was a pipefitter and had heart problems. Retired Army Airborne....Great experience.

Keep on Truckin. And thanks for the light hearted post.

I would also like to say that slugging has been a wonderful experience for me. I have never had what I would call a "bad" experience. I have generally been very impressed by the kindness of drivers and always felt they really considered it important to them to give me a safe and comfortable ride home.

Slugging is really a mutual benefit for all concerned and I am proud to call myself a slug...

Almost three years for me. Nothing exciting to report.
