    How do you deal with frantic managers who always need a quick response and don't have a filter? They're always all over the place and it makes it hard to focus.

    Sounds like a new manager. Personally I'm on the edge of a promotion and I find myself frantic. It's something I know I have to work on. I'm sure your boss knows too but is terrified of failure or starting off on the wrong foot to their superiors. Show them you can be trusted, have their back, and depend on you; they will calm down.

    I don’t want to share anything with them because it feels like they have been using that against me. I don’t feel comfortable sharing anything
