As long as he stayed out of jail, showed up ready to work can't be too hard on him.... ?????ÿ

Some people just can't do it at random.?ÿ Knew a fellow who learned how to get from his home to work.?ÿ He then learned how to get from his home to his girlfriend's home.?ÿ If he was at work and needed to go to her home he first had to drive to his home so he would know how to get there
Some never quite get left and right or the cardinal directions.?ÿ I feel very sorry for them.
I'm the opposite.?ÿ If I needed to get to your house in Virginia, I could probably get within 50 miles by simply visualizing where I am at any moment on a map in my head.?ÿ It might not be the best route or the shortest route, however.?ÿ In some cases I might get within five miles if I had a chance to really study the route in advance.
LOL. Recently I was forced to take a road trip with another company who used designated local drivers (they refused to allow their own staff to travel in another company's vehicle, hence they refused our offer to use one of our wagons, driven by me). I'd had so many bad experiences with designated drivers, driving like The Fast an Furious, so I took this one aside and told him not to drive like a prick. This guy was the exact opposite. Our journey took all day, about 500km on open highway, stopping here and there to do inspections. At the first stop, after two hours of driving, he pulled up, stepped out and urinated where he stood. But the lowlight of the affair was that all driving was done at a max speed of 60km/hr and in top gear (sixth), even up hills, at which stage it would vibrate and buck around, trying to stall. He also regularly fell asleep and I had to keep shoving him to wake him up, or grab the wheel to stop us drifting into the wrong lane. At the end of the trip I told the two other company's staff who had ridden in the back seat, that this driver was dangerous and was wrecking their wagon. They replied that they hadn't noticed.
That's a lot easier in the Midwest and west than the eastern states where nothing is cardinal or grid and you often can't see very far.
