Amazing Story

Recently I placed an ad on Craigslist looking for people who would like to tell their hitchhiking stories.  Here is a one of the stories I got.  This woman sent me five stories; three of which were happy and two which weren't so much.  It was one of her bad experiences which captivated me.  

"Picked up by a guy that seemed nice, I was on my way into town to interview for a waitress job.  He informed me that he shot his wife...I didn't know how to reply at first so I just looked around the truck and noticed the camper shell had bullet holes in it.  I said to the man, "the b@#$% must have really deserved it, huh?" He laughed and I said in a few more seconds "oh hey here we are this is where I am going." I got out of the truck and he didn't drive off.  I walked up to a house and knocked.  A person came and I said to them that I was being followed and just needed to pretend they were my friend so this guy would leave.  The older lady was kind enough to hug me like we were old friends.  He drove off and I thanked the woman  I walked the rest of the way to the restaurant, where I arrived soaked in sweat and actually got the job." 

Even though she had some bad experiences she ended her letter to me by saying that she still has faith in people and that now she is the one picking up hitchhikers!
