help with learning a new area quickly

Post by daddyglyn »

hey everyone i've been in the job for the past six months and really enjoying it but i really don't know the area that well at all that i work in and sometimes i can get proper lost :(

this won't be too bad but i cover any walk where the normal person is off, which could be a day or a few weeks, after one or two days on a walk its all ok.
