"A common deadline that I have is to get our contact order out every Monday afternoon. There are times that our Mondays are quite hectic, so I make a point to set aside one hour to get our orders out. I've also made a point to train each of our opticians to submit the contact order so we can cover each other if the other is busy or not at work."
