Have you ever used a handheld device or tablet for work, like scanning inventory or placing orders? What was that like for you?

Situational

Walk me through what a typical day would look like for you, from the first store on your list to the last.

You drive your own car between stores every day. How do you keep yourself organized so you don't waste time or miss a stop?
