 How do I ask multiple managers for clear priorities without sounding difficult

 Schedule a standing meeting with all of them to align on priorities each week. Make it clear you're swamped and need their input to avoid bottlenecks. Suggest something like 'Let's do a 15-minute triage every Monday to sort the week's urgents.' When deadlines collide, reply to both with 'These two are clashing - which one takes precedence?' That way you're not deciding alone and it shows you're proactive. If everything's urgent, push back by asking for realistic timelines upfront.

 Yeah, that sounds frustrating, especially first thing in the morning when all you want is a hot cup without the mess. guess is the gasket around the water reservoir might be shot after years of heat and use, they tend to wear out and let water sneak through.
Try cleaning it thoroughly, sometimes mineral buildup clogs things and causes overflows. If that doesn't help, check for any loose screws or parts that might need tightening. Fixed mine that way once. Good luck getting it sorted.
Works great now.
 What actually worked for you for way to push back on unrealistic deadlines at work?

 Ugh and these impossible deadlines suck when you're scraping by on ramen. just email 'Our estimates show this needs two extra weeks based on points.'
