| The Land Before G.P.S... |
| I gather from your tone, Mr. Moerdyk, that you have been very frustrated by this issue recently. To play Devil's Advocate, assuming you're in a calmer state of mind, whatever did we do to find our way without G.P.S. technology? Personally, I leave little to chance, in a pedantic kind of way, so I'm the one who checks an invitation's venue is fully listed, and usually calls the company concerned beforehand for directions. And I keep an old, dog-eared map book under my car seat...G.P.S. doesn't navigate blank robots or Gautrain roadwork deviations either. Is it not in the interests of the attendee, as much as the invitor, to take responsibility for correct addresses being arrived at timeously? I do hear you, and on point of principle, professionals ought to get it right. But, as you mention, given the lack of foresight evident in the corporate world today, surely it behoves us even more to be extra vigilant, and not leave these things in the hands of the courtesy-challenged? |
