Hey, I'm doing a sample survey on how technology affects the productivity of people. It's preferable to have a large sample size, so it'd be great if you could all answer.
It'd be easier on me if you downloaded the
document, filled it in, and sent it to my email (
[email protected]). I did leave the survey below though.
