By Tatiauna Miller
Throwing up my sign! I need a ride!
In the DMV area we have several commuting options: buses, trains, van pools and Slug lines! Slug-lines are a free commuting option which allows people to pick up passengers from designated locations and during rush-hour to use the 95-395 North HOV (High Occupancy Vehicle) lanes to DC.
Slug lines started in the DC area over 40 years ago in 1975! A 40 year old, free transportation system is bound to have some rules, because you know people have zero common sense.
Slugging has about 20 rules or “Slugging Etiquette”, most of these are the same rules you had when you were a little kid riding in the car with your grumpy older sibling. Here are a few:
– No eating or drinking in the car! Don’t you know how hard it is to clean up bacon, egg and cheese biscuit crumbs!
– Slugs do not talk: Seriously, no need to make awkward conversations at 6:30am or at 4:30pm. No one cares!

Tati’s World: Jerks at Work…
August 9th, 2017 CEO 
By Tatiauna Miller
A majority of our society has to go to work to make money. We spend a large percentage of our lives in a place of business surrounded by people we fucking don’t like! Let’s discuss some of the worst office offender and are you one of them?
The most common offender in my office is the Speakerphone conversationalist. This is the person that puts EVERY damn call on speaker. Not only is every call on speaker, the volume is turned up to 100 so the sounds travels through every cubical within a 50 yard radius. This person also feels like they must yell into the base of the phone, like they’re calling plays at an NFL game. I feel like since I’m forced to listen to the conversation, it should be perfectly acceptable for me to participate in the calls too. Why not? I’d love to tell Pam what I’d like for dinner tonight, or chime in about how to punish little Johnny for using up the family data plan.

The Neighborhood Watch: A Commentary on Safety & Our Society Today!
“Love Thy Neighbor”
There are 7 billion people on earth and counting so you would think there are as many ways to “Love Thy Neighbor” as there are neighbors by now. The truth is there are a lot less and people are starting to like being left alone, maybe for good reason.
Back in the day if there was a new neighbor they were welcomed with warm, delicious apple pies and cookies. People made it a happy point in their day to stop by and introduce themselves and their family because everyone needs to feel welcomed in a new environment. While it was a way to show love and kindness, especially to newcomers in that area, it was also the nicest way to run “The Neighborhood Watch” on a stranger.
That’s Right!
