Comment How to say No. (Score 1) 723
You really don't have to if you keep a good work habit of making a timeline or timetable of work-in-hand. If you work in an open environment you can keep the timeline in project names - but if your work is confidential keep a set of simple codes for projects.
You can discuss your schedule and priorities openly if you do this. You'll get two hits this way, first for being organised and second for being open to negotiation.
But when it gets tight don't hesitate to say "No" to impossible demands. You'll still be recognised for having the nous to be organised and the balls to be decisive.
