I'd like to start slugging in to the Pentagon, but don't know what to do if I miss getting a ride with a slug.
What do all of you do if you don't get a ride?
I would be coming from Rt 208 or Rt 610.

Make sure you always have an extra set of clothes and some toiletries at your office...you may have to stay the night there occasionally.

RobertLangDirect, from the name, vaqtpie seems like a female.
vaqtpie, RLD has some good ideas. I would definitely suggest talking to a friend/relative/acquaintance to pick you up from someplace in case you need it.
Here are my options. If one fails, I try the next.
- get ride from DC to VA commuter lot using DC email list
- take Metro to Rosslyn, catch ride from slug stop
- take Metro to Springfield, ask someone I know to pick me up
- take Metro to Springfield, take bus to commuter lot
- take Metro to VA or DC location, meet friend at work to get ride home
KCWolfPck, what are you talking about???

Have any of you ridden on the Quicks bus? How do you like them?
Do they have a restroom? (it took me forever to get home last night, but at least the guy driving was nice enough to offer to make a bathroom stop)
