You mean similar to this situation?:
It is 2 days into the project and your first 2 days of the contract,
you've collected information from 2 straight full days (17 hours) of
meetings. It is now 8pm, you are exhausted, and you need to present a
first draft of the document to your boss the next day, with copies
going to 15 team members.
You sit down, you start Word to create the document, and you suddenly
break out into pouring cold sweat because you don't have the FOGGIEST
idea about what you need to write about.
Nope...never had that feeling...until Tues of last week.
