I am currently studying in college and part of my college course dictates that I most do a work experience placement. I ended being placed in a charity shop. The first couple of days went well. Its a small little shop in a shopping center so there wasn’t much for me to do. So they decided that today I’ll do some work in the warehouse where they receive their goods.
They gave me the address but they forgot the bus so I ended taking a bus that stopped at a 20 minutes walk away. I got off the bus and tried to find this warehouse with the help of Google maps. It kept constantly telling me to go in different directions for the next 40 minutes. So I was walking around in 0 degrees Celsius weather is just a jumper. I eventually managed to find the correct area but it was in a big industrial park. I went searching around for 40 minutes and it turns out all they had to identify them is like a tiny wooden sign. So I finally got to my placement nearly 2 hours late. They were quite forgiving about it though since apparently that has happened to a few other before.
It happens occasionally, you can file a report and fix it.
Idk. Google Maps has had the wrong location for my mom’s address for what seems like forever now. Reporting it has done nothing. It’s really frustrating because it means she can’t get deliveries from anyone other than USPS, UPS, Amazon, or FedEx. Food deliveries are flat out not possible. It directs people to an entirely different neighborhood.
