"Currently, I report to the President and Vice-President of the company. The Vice-President usually asks me to help with memos, email correspondence, and scheduling meetings that pertain to the operational side of the business. The President handles the development side and often asks me to assist him frequently. There have only been a handful of times they both asked me to complete several assignments at the same time. I explained to the Vice-President that I would start on his request when I was done with the one I was working on for the President."
