PREVENTING MONDAY FIREFIGHTING

Nothing derails a week faster than discovering a simmering issue that’s been sitting since Friday.

A quick end-of-week handoff keeps your team aligned, gives on-call engineers context, and shows clients you’re watching – even when the office is closed.

The scenario:

You need to generate a Friday escalation summary for internal handoff and client visibility.

The prompt:

You’re preparing a weekend handoff.

Here’s this week’s escalation and ticket data: [paste PSA export]

Create a brief summary that includes:

– Open P1/P2 tickets with status and next action

– Any issues at risk of SLA breach over the weekend

– On-call engineer assignments and contact info

– Client-facing summary (3-4 sentences) for proactive outreach

Keep the internal version under 200 words.
