Hi y’all! So I’ve been in my current role now for about four years. I am now the person everyone comes to for questions. During my review my boss complimented my work, and said that I’m the top employee per the data comparison of my team.
But it was also stated by her this is why I’m given more work.
I suppose my question is – how do you break the cycle of being the “top employee”, as your boss now expects this from you?
I used to respond with yes no problem I’ll have this taken care of for you! To “I’ll find time today to get this done”.
Any suggestions on how to slowly escape this would be appreciated (also I’m actively looking for a new position but nothing yet).
