I am supposed to turn in a major project, and I’m so far behind. I have adhd and my executive dysfunction has been out of control for weeks. I am already two days past the deadline, and nobody has called me on it yet, but the minute they do shit will hit the fan.
I’m scrambling to pull something together, but it’s not going to be enough.
Better to as forgiveness than permission? As others have said, lay it all out for your manager what has happened. If a company doesn’t account for missteps in projects and they take longer, it’s a pretty poor company.
