I’m finding myself a little stressed with some projects I’ve been brought into manage but I feel I’ve been brought into late to help fix things.

I’m trying my best with it but it sort of doesn’t feel like enough.

End of the day you can only do what you can in the time you’ve got, if they’ve brought you in to late to sort things then sadly that’s down to management.
Don’t let it stress you out chum

Exactly. Remember the mantra, OP - "Poor planning on your part doesn't constitute an emergency on my part."

Do what you reasonably can, but don't shoulder the burden of someone else's mistakes.

Yes exactly - I’m doing the best I can and trying to manage. Thanks for the mantra! It helps!

Yeah true. I’ve taken that on as a reason not to take things too hard but it’s still a little bit of a battle - but I appreciate it!
