    Not a problem if theyre not choosy

    330 am drizzling into snow, 30-35 degrees, saw a car on the shoulder with a snapped axle and dimming hazards middle of nowhere illinois, said "that sucks" to myself, about 1 mile on, saw a small figure walking.

    Took me a few seconds, but figured someone desperate enough to walk in that crap needed some help.

    Hit shoulder, her car broke, her phone was dead, she asked to borrow my phone or charger (her iphone port didnt work with my android stuff) and a ride to just the next exit.

    Let her call on my phone, found a truckstop 3 exits down that wasnt open but would be at 6. Waited till she got a hold of someone to tell them where she was, left her there with a blanket. She sat on the bunk, i dont have a passenger seat.

    Wasnt keen on leaving her outside like that BUT also not in my cab any longer than i could get her out of it. I'm a married man and i know what temptation looks like.

    Dear Penthouse Forum....here is my story:

    330 am drizzling into snow, 30-35 degrees, saw a car on the shoulder with a snapped axle and dimming hazards middle of nowhere illinois, said "that sucks" to myself, about 1 mile on, saw a small figure walking.

    Took me a few seconds, but figured someone desperate enough to walk in that crap needed some help.

    Hit shoulder, her car broke, her phone was dead, she asked to borrow my phone or charger (her iphone port didnt work with my android stuff) and a ride to just the next exit.

    Let her call on my phone, found a truckstop 3 exits down that wasnt open but would be at 6. Waited till she got a hold of someone to tell them where she was, left her there with a blanket. She sat on the bunk, i dont have a passenger seat.

    This isnt the penthouse forum, goddammnit, wrong spot

    But in all seriousness, the FUN story is the fact that at age 16 or 17 i picked up someone who was actually hooking and i had no clue
