Episode 167 | Get in, Loser. We're Going Stretching.

Question

Hey Work Wives, it's Denise from Mesa, Arizona, and I have to tell you... I recently got put on a stretch project and I have no idea what's going on. Like, I think I'm failing at it. I think it was a bad idea for my career. I just like, I, I don't know how to tell my manager to take me off the project because we're both about halfway through and I, I don't, I don't think I'm, I, I don't know. It's just not working. So can I, can you, I don't know, just, can you just give me some words of encouragement or maybe like how to talk to my manager about taking away a stretch project? I just need some help because I'm drowning here.

Summary

Un/fortunately, stretch projects are exactly what they sound like.
