This is when you have to go to the people upstairs and say:
"You've given me X tasks to do. I can do Y (where Y is less than X). Pick the ones I'll do. The rest aren't going to get done any time soon.
Don't like it? HIRE SOMEONE."
My team has given this ultimatum regularly to other departments at my workplace, and you'd be surprised how well it works. If someone comes and bitches
about something needing to be done rightnowdamnit, point them to the boss and tell them to complain to him. It makes things MUCH easier.
