this promotion i've been working on for weeks goes live at midnight tomorrow night.
after last week's relative calm, the shit has hit the fan here in the final 48 hours. everything that could go wrong more or less has gone wrong. the responsibility for just about every piece of this promotion falls firmly on my shoulders. normally that's something i'm proud of, but when the chips are down and shit is going wrong, it's the worst.
things were already stressful enough when i got a voicemail late tonight telling me that due to it's similarity to another promotion from a different company (that we just discovered), we've gotta make changes to just about every piece. including pieces that have long since been done and sent off to print. yikes.
i don't know what those changes are yet. i am supposed to find out late tonight / early tomorrow, but needless to say, i'll be working probably right up until midnight.
hopefully once this thing goes live, shit will calm down again. i know that calm exists at my job, i had some last week. it was amazing to have a normal workload. i just have to survive this maddening week.
i know i bitch a lot, but i promise i do actually love my job. it's just sometimes it's tough love. really tough love.
and once again, facebook fucking nails it with the ads. it's scary, really.

Chin up! I hope you got to bed at a reasonable time.
Man, that sucks! I like my job where the only downfall to not making deadlines is a 2 year old tantrum. Not quite the same as your job.
