Hey all.
I need some advice on how to deal with the adhoc vs planned work. There are emails, tickets and verbal interruptions that need my attention. Additionally there is an incrr sing amount of meetings I need to attend. At the same time I want to focus on the development of the infrastructure for the planned work. I notice that all the interruptions are detrimental to both the planned and the adhoc work.
The fact that I have to switch my attention all the time and can’t just focus starts to frustrate me. It also has to do with my adhd. I cant utilize my hyperfocus to finish the planned work, instead it stimulates the attention switching side of my adhd and cant get into the problem. I just notice I am not as effective as I was before I got this workload.
Do you people recognize this struggle? How do you deal with this?
Thanks, however language by its very nature is dynamic and changing. If enough people use adhoc in this way it will mean spontaneous ;-).
Care to try and answer my question?
The implication is to say “I’m busy right now, let me get back to you”.
