For my own personal contact card, I have addresses for work and for home. These are important because when I get in my car and plug in my iPhone, I use CarPlay to navigate me home in case of traffic. In order for me to hit "home" or "work" in the Apple Maps app, it needs to have an address for home/work... which comes from the contact card on my device for me. Every day or so, my devices keep defaulting the addresses in there to just "address" instead of home or work. No matter how many time I switch them back. It doesn't have any rhyme or reason to it. I've looked for duplicate contacts (there are none) and I've tried adjusting this on my phone and Mac, as well as iCloud online, and they all just revert back to default label within 24-48 hours.

Not the end of the world, but really annoying! Anyone have any fix for this?
 
That's a pain!

Have you tried deleting your own contact card and redoing it from scratch? I'd let the deletion propagate to iCloud and all other devices before making the new contact.
