Ah, the joys of being a Scrum Master. Juggling upper management's demands and the dev team's frustrations - it's like being a circus performer, but without the cool costumes.

C is the way to go. Putting the requests into the product backlog as high priority ensures they get addressed, and the team can work on them in a structured manner. After all, the Scrum Master isn't there to play telephone tag with upper management.

Option B seems like a bad idea. Ignoring the phone calls and emails from upper management could backfire and create more problems. The Scrum Master needs to address this proactively.

I'm leaning towards D. The Scrum Master should personally respond to upper management's phone calls and emails. This way, they can manage the expectations and communicate the team's progress directly.
