I n any field of work I have done, whether it be Project Managing, Editing, or being an Assistant Store Manager, the quality of my work is extremely important. I always ensure to take the time to perfect my work while having completion done in a timely fashion. An important component is having the responsibility of time management and prioritizing. This calls for planning out how long it could take to complete a task to ensure it is completed on time, to perfection. Quality work is the end goal, and that takes time input.
