I manage a small team (6 people at the moment). From the moment I walk into the office to the moment I leave, they're coming at me one after the other with question after question after question. I told them this morning that I was just about to phone my own boss and two of them literally jumped out of their chairs because they were so anxious to ask me just one more thing.
It's all work-related but it's driving me nuts. I'm so far behind with my own work and can't sit down for 10 minutes at a time without someone wanting something. I've booked a weekly one-to-one catch-up with each of them and blocked out a day where I work from home so I can be free of interruptions but it's not enough. It's getting to the point where I can feel my temper rising because it's utterly relentless.
What do I do?
