Some managers will push you to do more until you push back.
Perhaps you have to learn to say "No" to things you don't have time for in a regular workday.
As Stephen Covey put it in 7 Habits, when asked to do more, pull out your prioritized, filled-out calendar and ask which item they'd like you to deprioritize to take on the new task. Then you'll discover their real priorities.
