i'm exaggerating but still...shit been so stressful I'm barely sleeping. Without boring you with the details, I work in IT and was staffed on a global project with no defined scope a limited timeline and a very demanding client. I'm no stranger to this, but we typically draft language in our SOWs to help keep our efforts focused. The guy who drafted this one did no such thing so we have nothing to protect us from scope creep. Basically the client can come up with any random idea and demand we do it and we have no leverage to protect us (terrible).

Anyway, i'm no rookie to this but the shit is really getting to me lately. I don't think i have the energy for the months of battle it will take to right the ship. I know some of you, if not most of you, have demanding careers and have been buried in similar troubled waters. how do you deal?
