shouldn't there be a Cortana Bugs & Recommendations sticky in this subforum for listing cortana bugs?

Cortana keeps suggesting the same wrong place as the place I work (which I say no to almost daily).

my situation: parents are getting construction done at their house so I go during the day to check on the work - she keeps predicting I work there. I keep pressing no to her suggestion - she keeps making it repeatedly. Kind of an annoying process b/c I dont want to see the suggestion all the time so I OCD-ishly must clear it away every time.

I have some other list of things too.
(Recommendation in this case) For example, if you pull up an address, she should naturally ask which app to map it with (always defaults to HERE maps with eats battery life like there is no tomorrow). sometimes I want to use the simple built in (bing?) maps just to get a feel for the area. I haven't used any 3rd party apps, but if you have 3rd party maps apps that you prefer, she should ask which maps app to use before deciding to give you HERE maps whether you like it or not.
she also didn't recognize an address with street address + town + zip. state was missing. would think that's not too hard to implement.

Change your default navigation map in settings to the Maps app.

Thanks thought about this
its a dual utilization, sometimes I use HERE Maps for voice nav, sometimes I use (bing?) or built in maps (load a lot quicker) just for map view - because I know the area and need to find a specific location within the area.
maybe whats intuitive for me (option to select which app) is one more step for others

OK, assuming that this is the unofficial Cortana bugs thread, this morning she misinterpreted a pretty obvious typed request:

Me: "remind me to head to starbucks at 11.15am"
Cortana: "Head to starbucks / only once / time? / Saturday, November 15"

This goes wrong with or without the space between the time and 'am'. I thought this used to work? Anyway, almost time to head to Starbucks, gotta go!

Cortana only knows what you tell 'her'. Maybe you could try rewording your question, or search. Just saying "no", would not change the information she has. Just a suggestion...........
