I'm clocked in with the task I'm currently doing. If this is interrupted
I will clock in the new task that has been appointed to me without
clocking out the old task. (You might have to create the interrupting
task before clocking it in.)

After I'm done with the interrupting task, I'll do C-u C-C C-x C-i and
press "i" which I believe stands for "continue the previous interrupting
task".

(I have this bound to F-keys because I clock stuff all the time.)
