    I got one for my son when he was little. Now he uses it under his drum kit.

    It was tough back in the day.

    You didn't have city maps.
    Had to find a pay phone for English speaking directions.

    I wouldn't do this job without.

    No doubt the job is easier these days with all the tech.
    IF used properly, that is.

    Road atlas only provides street-level maps on a very few, very large cities.

    Today is a good example of the way it was in the old days you called and they had a recorded directions ,your GPS will put you several miles away from the correct location.
