1. If your boss assigns you a task with a deadline that you are sure you cannot meet, it is important to communicate with your boss immediately. Explain the reasons why you believe the task cannot be completed within the given deadline and discuss possible solutions such as extending the deadline, reassigning the task to someone else, or breaking the task into smaller parts with staggered deadlines.

If you're confident that the deadline isn't feasible, it's crucial to communicate this to your boss. Explain your concerns, providing realistic estimates of the time required and any potential obstacles. Propose a revised deadline or suggest ways to streamline the task to meet the original timeline. It's better to address the issue upfront rather than risk missing the deadline or delivering subpar work.
