Literally gave a less senior colleague this advice a few weeks ago: it’s okay to volunteer to be the person to step up to handle the new emergency BUT you also gotta say what you’re doing currently that’s now gonna be delayed/late because of the new thing you’re taking on.
You can’t absorb a new responsibility without impacting an existing one, and if you’re not vocal about that, you’re punching yourself in the face.
Don’t punch yourself in the face, y’all. https://glammr.us/@overholt/112527549646116722
