Scenario:
Michael McIntyre, Housing Manager of McCormick Hall, walks into his office on a Monday morning. He logs onto his computer and navigates to our web application, `appname`, where he views the current repair jobs, along with the new repair jobs which have come in and are already heuristically prioritized. However, Michael decides to move the broken printer repair job to the top of the list because it’s finals week and because many students will be wanting to print out practice exams. He then assigns the new repair jobs to the dorm mechanic, Jenks.
Jenks walks into his office and checks the list of jobs assigned to him. He notes down the jobs he’s been assigned to do as well as their priorities. He begins working on the different jobs and writes down parts that he might need to order. In particular, he needs new fluorescent light bulbs to replace the lighting in the McCormick Date Room. At lunchtime, he logs back into `appname`, closes the tasks he’s completed, and notes that he needs new fluorescent light bulbs.
Michael returns from his lunch break and logs on to `appname` to check up on his active repair jobs. He sees that he’s received a notification from Jenks informing him that Jenks needs fluorescent light bulbs for him to replace the lighting in the McCormick Date Room. Michael uses `appname`’s address book feature to find Home Depot’s phone number and then place a bulk order for replacement light bulbs. He then updates the light bulb task on `appname` to indicate he’s placed an order for the needed light bulbs and that the task should be ready to proceed tomorrow morning. While he’s on `appname`, Michael also goes ahead and processes the new repair jobs that have come in since the morning.
