So far this week, my boss and his boss have done very well.
Monday, boss's boss came by saying that he'd noticed I work a lot and asked if he should reassign some stuff to another group. We ended up deciding that I should go through the list of stuff to do for the Project and see what can be postponed and if there's still too much he'll make sure someone else helps out with some stuff.
Yesterday I did the prioritising with Project leader and we postponed quite a lot, so now the list seems reasonable again.
Just now boss's boss stopped by to mention that there was some data lacking in the firewall statistics thingy and asked me to take a look at it some time - "it's not urgent, but if you have a moment sometime this week it'd be good". I told him I thought the problem lay with one of the servers which will be removed by Project and nothing would please me more than to be rid of that one. He asked if I'm OK with the workload now, and as he left he threw over his shoulder that "you should know you're doing a really great job here".
That's a level of support for the staff to which I'm not accustomed. I like this place!

With luck they'll be very successful and thus encourage other places to actually act as if good staff are their greatest asset rather than just say so.
