Thanks Kid.. I'll ask him in January! lol!
That's when I'm supposed to see him next. It seems to be working itself out tonight. I'm so exhausted I could sleep for years! I don't think I'll have trouble sleeping tonight.
Thanks for the support. If this becomes more of a problem I will get an appointment sooner to try to get some benzos.

This is information vital to be able to perform my job well. Also I am not given the same tools as the other members of the "team." It's not just me. There is another contractor on the "team" that is treated similarly. We just had a redesign and neither I nor he knew when it was going to launch yet we were held responsible for maintaining the site through this transition!
