Is field marketing a permanent job in a particular company?
Let’s use the agent to see if it can search at least, when it doesn’t know?

And hey Claude? There’s a reserved float division /. if both numbers are floats, for sure (19) but so can one use // even though both are integers (20):
As usual, I’ll make my point backed by verifiable examples.
