The absolute worst thing you can tell me is to do something but "no rush, when you have the time!"
Because if I don't do it immediately, I'd forget and whoops - six months have gone by.
@DosFox IBNUs (Important but not urgent) are things that will never get done. I'm on an endless interrupt cycle with important tasks from five years ago still in the push stack awaiting processing. New tasks are arriving faster than I can stack them. Emails about emails about emails about stuff folks are waiting for keep arriving. I'm getting fined large sums for late tax returns. I just looked at a job from 2009 that I haven't completed. Still needs doing. And yes, it's important.
