I've got direction. Do you?

If lost, blame the driver, not the map.

Coffee: the only turn-by-turn directions that actually get me to “functional human.”

You can’t spell “cartography” without “cry” if you just delete most of the letters.

Nobody will remember:
- your salary
- how "busy" you were
People will remember:
- that one time you said you knew a shortcut and then got your friends lost

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT:
If you need to know which map app to use, MapQuest has the large body of water to our south correctly identified, by its real name. Google maps & others do not, damaging their credibility.
Maps MUST be ACCURATE.
Thank you for your attention.

MapQuest: Turn left.
You: Into a bakery?
MapQuest: A sweet detour.

MapQuest @mapquest.com · Sep 4

You are here. The question is: where were you before?

If they fell between the seats, aka a black hole, those printed directions are gone.
