I always collect DD from her job at 7:30pm - tis too dark to get home alone!

i used to ride my bike to work and back at that age.

I used to get the train home. But quite a few of my friends had sat jobs in the town, so we all came home together.

do you mean meet the employers?
or transport meet

transport-depends on how far from home and when

I like to pick dd up in the evening

Goodness, leave them to it. I'd have been mortified if my parents had treated me like a child by picking me up from work at 16.

Are you asking about checking out the owners?

brimfull · 18/01/2008 22:00

Am I a woos for worrying about dd walking 1.5 miles home from somewhere at 10pm?

Pimmpom · 18/01/2008 22:09

No, I wouldn't want my dd walking home at 10pm either.
