In my experience, when it's other people deciding the priority of your tasks (usually your boss), the distribution is 150 P1 tickets, 3 P2 tickets and 1 P3.

This is when the underrated skill of saying NO pays off massive dividends. One long-term client once told me the thing he appreciated the most, compared to most other consultants, was that I wasn't afraid of pushing back on his requests and saying no (within reason). Probably the most valuable feedback I have ever received.
