I use GPS all the time.

I push the search by voice button on my Droid. And say "Navigate to <address>"

2 seconds later it's there and we don't have to confuse Oak St and Red Oak Ct.

Exactly. I don't even have to say the address, just the name of the facility =) Plus using the google navigation it gives you a picture of where you're supposed to be at the end. It's awesome.
 
Local knowledge is good too; that and GPS gets Brown to where Brown needs to go ... now if only Brown could read those house numbers

This is what happens when Brown is blind :P

I'm a job :censored::censored::censored::censored::censored:.


Been looking at dispatch jobs nearby me to get better hours (and not have to do a 2 hour commute) so that I can go back to school.


Drop in pay, and not in the field, but we'll see...

File for reciprocity in the state of TN, then shoot an email with the subject line "BONNAROO" to the email address I just PMd you.

Then they'd actually have to provide us with up to date mapbooks that weren't missing random pages and teach employees how to read a map.

In the interest of full disclosure, I do not know how to read a map and have not seen the need to. I have GPS. GPS works.

A couple places in my area have you take a class on how to read and use the map book followed by a test that you have to pass. It's a 6 hour class.

But for my specific location I don't have to take that class. I would love to be able to use GPS but I do believe that everyone should know how to use the map. If your GPS breaks and you don't have cell service then you are in for a wonderful time lol
