How am I supposed to delegate work when there's no one to delegate it to?

You'd think having the word "Senior" in your title would mean there would be schmucks for me to shove around. I realized today that in my department, I am said schmuck. Of course given the fact that I am one of only two people working on this project, and the other person also is in charge of 2 other... larger ...projects might have something to do with it.

Hire a Sherpa. I hear they come in handy in difficult situations.

Delegate via voice mail to someone you know is out of the office and call it good.

No way. Sherpas are usually high on something.

Earlier today, there was a thread about a 'Wally Reflector' 😀

Remember, "Invest your time," "work smarter not harder," "utilize you resources" and, "delegate."
Translated from Corporate to English, 'you're screwed!'
Have a nice day 🙂

I'll do it. Email me the db schema and formal requirements and I'll have it done by January.

Talk to your imaginary friends.. this way the other coworkers will fear you also.
