Punishingly Intricate

In news about me, is there any good way to say to one's boss, "You know, I can only focus on so many things at one time!!" I think the real problem right now is that the number of things I can focus on is approaching zero, but still.

I used to have this issue a lot when I started my last job. I had to keep sitting my boss at the time down and have him prioritize tasks for me. And, to some extent, I just had to get used to those priorities changing on a dime and having to do many different things at once.

"Can you we prioritize projects x,y,z, and donkey?"

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Shit. I forgot all about project donkey.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It's fucking project donkey that's killing me.

The problem is, I actually know the priorities, and they are all #1!! Whatever.

Since everything can't be priority #1, does it make you tempted to have NOTHING be priority #1?
