How to communicate well at work

When you are asked to do something:
1. Immediately add the request to the top of your queue.
  1. If the request is something I think I'll finish today and not something I normally create a JIRA ticket for: # TODO: Clarify when you would create a JIRA ticket for something.
    1. I use Notepad.
      1. Example: "Prioritize the request to do XYZ."
  2. Otherwise:
    1. I create a ticket in JIRA.
2. Reply and confirm that you've received the request.
  1. Example: "Request acknowledged."
3. Prioritize the request.
  1. Example: "Hmm...I should do this before X and after Y."
4. Reply again and give your prioritization information / ETA.
