Can you increase your estimates for the work to give yourself some breathing space or ask to be transferred to another project or perhaps you can get an extra person to take some of the load to free you up ?
You pinpointed all the pain points at my workplace. We are a startup, understaffed, in my opinion, and long estimates are frowned upon. Our main project is what we were hired for, so transferring is also not an option.
Thanks for chiming in!
Sorry to hear that. Realistically you are only one person and can only do so much. If I'm getting pressed for different things I put the decision on the pm . you can have x now but it means I'll have to put y on hold.
Thank you!
