I have so many work tasks that I have to do before the holiday is over and I'm overwhelmed with the amount of work that they are given me. I honestly feel like it's not right to have all these task due before Christmas. Does your job have deadlines that's has to be done before the holidays? How do you work under pressure?

I honestly just do the best that I can. If I am overwhelmed or feeling like they are giving me more than I can handle, I speak up to my manager about it. Sometimes you just have to ask for help.

A parent of one of my students told admin she thinks it's irresponsible that I won't be grading over Christmas break. I let the students know to get any work they need graded in before the break and I'll get it to it during our workdays in January. Apparently that's not fast enough for her 🙄. Is it wrong that I'm sort of pissed off by this? Should I say something?
