@rulerlesscasey: Replying to @user6037153094686 I'd love to hear in the comments how people have dealt with this scenario. I’d also love to hear from people who have a humane workplace where it’s normal to set expectations with your manager. #workplacechallenges #humaneleadership #overfunctioning #overachievers #youngprofessional
It's so frustrating how we're expected to tiptoe around them instead of direct communication

I wish my team would negotiate like this. (Some do). I also work to get team members to regularly consider changing how we do things to get efficiencies in our ever changing environment.

Lmao the hilarious fact that this is how I present options to my toddler instead of just saying no

This makes me feel uncomfortable 😣I’ve just been tracking my work so when we do our one on ones, she can also visually see what tasks she has asked me to do or what is being asked of me so that she can let me know what to prioritize .

I had a young person who was constantly being asked/told to take the next run, there wasn't anyone else, it shouldn't take too long. I coached them to say, I don't mind being asked to take this run, but I will not be taking every run. Be prepared for my being unavailable later.

Yes! As a trainee solicitor I do this all the time and let the senior fee earners discuss what is priority/when I have to work late!

my boss would just brag about the 10 projects he's touched in a day. 🙃 or that he works 60 hours a week but he's a director.

Yeah I'm doing that now, "here's all the things that I'm being asked to do, I can't work on 8 things simultaneously, tell me which one or two are a priority and be aware what is falling through because of that". We ended up agreeing on picking a main topic for a week and making really good progress on it, and planning a couple weeks ahead to align with the rest of the team. I get some stuff done on the side but I don't promise it.
I learned the hard way that I have to manage my workload really strictly, because otherwise I will burn out and nothing will be done.
