Their tone with me. They are much more friendly. They proactively reach out asking if there are any actions items for them. It's like a flip switched somewhere. Maybe they realize how much is on my plate. But I haven't said a word to anyone about my workload. And have never had clients act like this in previous projects. What ever the reason, it's so refreshing to see

I would delegate and push back. You don't want them to this that this is acceptable. Yes - we all deal with ebbs and flows at work but you don't want to set yourself up for doing this ALL the time.

What should I do, I asked him to put some extra team members but he didn't agree, seems like he will add extra team members 2-3 weeks before my LWD.
