“dropping the ball”

I’ve been at my company almost a year. I support 4 execs, manage the office, manage marketing, and recently took on another position on the Operations team they aren’t backfilling.

I made a comment to one of my exec’s about how this new position (fleet management) is taking up a lot of my time. (It’s a shit show, so I’m working on it nonstop!!). She went behind my back to another exec to voice her concerns about how I’m ‘dropping the ball’ and ‘super overwhelmed’.

This exec brought it up to me, and is having me create a log of my tasks to track where I’m spending my time. The word got out to the other execs, so now they’re all concerned about me.

I’ve reassured them all I’m fine, I’m not overwhelmed, and I’m getting everything done. I can be overwhelmed internally, but that doesn’t mean I don’t get the job done!

Just irritated one boss has created this spiral. I honestly caught the vibe that they are jealous I don’t spend as much time on their team as I do the others. Also layoffs are happening & im super excited this is all happening at the same time!!
