Are you familiar with the PWD environment variable? At the shell prompt type
$ echo PWD
and the present working directory will be displayed.
From the "Yes, I'm old and cranky" Department: just use the pwd

[heinlein@omega ~]$ echo $PWD
/home/heinlein
[heinlein@omega ~]$ pwd
/home/heinlein
pwd is part of the GNU coreutils application suite, so it's probably
installed just about everywhere outside of appliance-y machines.
