This new job is so stressful, my god.

I think they are testing me, which is fine, but I'm afraid I'm floundering. In summary, I was asked if I had ever done any information architecture for a website, or any wireframing. I have no experience with either one, and I told them that, but said I would be willing to try, and so it became my job. I was fine with that. I don't mind learning new things and doing work no one else wants to do. That's the only way to grow. That is not the problem.

The problem is that it is extremely time sensitive (in fact it's going out tonight). I basically had to do the whole thing in 3 days, including whatever very minimal research I could do. I have no idea if I did it right or not. I have a feeling there are some huge mistakes lurking in there, but at this point it's too late to care. No one else in the office knows how to do it either, so I'm really on my own here, and the guy who will be reviewing these does NOT mince words. He seemed very frustrated with me last week because it was technically due on Friday and here I am, barely able to finish on Monday.

So you might be wondering why I'm writing all of this if I'm so pressed for time: I just need a break. I have been working non-stop since 9:00 on this, and my brain feels like a piece of tempura (battered and deep fried). I have a splitting headache and just can't concentrate. I'm dreading my review, both now and long term. I'm afraid the client is going to write back and ask what idiot did these totally unprofessional wireframes and site map (I know I messed up the site map, but I couldn't be bothered doing a killer job when I had so much else to do). And so all my hopes of this turning into a full time job will be destroyed.

Anyway, I'm done whining. Thanks for reading...
