Sometimes I need to do a job, but I can’t move forward until I get an answer from someone else. While waiting for the answer, you can go on to other tasks and bring this item forward another day to get it off your desk, but don’t let it go off your radar. Put it in your Outlook Tasks with a reminder to follow up.
