Rise your hand
Please don’t refrain yourself when you are watching the iceberg approaching.
Your boss and peers will be grateful with you if you ask for help when you know you won’t make the deadline or the expected outcome; when there is still time to do something about it.
The greatest anger, and what causes more visceral reactions, like firing someone, it’s when the next question arises: why didn’t you say something?
So avoid putting yourself in that position. It is better for everybody.
And if they end up hating the messenger, then you know you shouldn’t be around that kind of people.

I prefer not to be that awkward guy in the room. Therefore you must be the other guy.
