Delegate cheyadam, 'No' cheppadam nerchuko

Nuvvu superhero vi kadu. Work load ekkuva unte, nee manager ki clear ga cheppu. 'Idi nenu cheyagalanu, kani vere project delay avtundi. Edi priority?' ani adugu. Idi weak avvadam kadu, professional ga undadam.

Keep in mind: Limits unnapudu sorry cheppaku. Nuvvu time manage chestunnav, fail avvatledu.
