Gee,

This is a difficult one.  It's never easy to appreciate the pressures that someone else has in their job, but that does work both ways.

I must say that my own way of working is that all requests for information or replies are dealt with either immediately or diaried into my Outlook calendar for reply by/on a certain date.  Yes, it can leave me feeling as though I am chasing my own tail or trying to juggle too many balls along with the million other tasks and projects I am progressing, but I think that clear and effective communication is key.

And, rule numero uno: ALWAYS make sure you stay on good terms with everyone's gatekeeper (be it EA, PA or Admin) and be very nice to cleaning ladies, security men, delivery men and people who come round to fix things.  That way, you make a heap of friends you never thought you would and can always call in lots of favours.
