What to cover

  1. Introduce yourself and explain you need directions
  2. Explain where you're trying to go
  3. Ask clarifying questions
  4. Thank them for their help

Rehearse it once first

Reading a checklist is the easy part. Saying it to someone who answers back is where calls go wrong. In murmur you make this call out loud, the other side reacts, and afterwards you see which of these goals you hit.
