Input: Text: so, i'm still reeling from this and i'm supposed to submit my results to my boss by mon morning.  

for my day job, i research ways that dod components can save money using publicly available information--that is, we *don't* get to talk to the people we're trying to save money for so we don't always find know the complete picture of what they do and what they've tried.  

anyhow, yesterday my boss asks me to take a cost savings opportunity developed by one of my coworkers and expand upon in and attach a dollar savings.  i spent all of thu researching his opportunity but not finding anything to support it.  i'm convinced though that he has some esoteric knowledge that i don't on how this opportunity will actually save money.  

my boss asks for a progress report about mid-afternoon and i tell him that yes, it looks like this opportunity will save some money and i proceed to give a true though admittedly stretched example.  right now, that's my *only* example and it sucks--i would laugh someone out of the room if they suggested it to me.  

by mon morning at 8am, i have to deliver my results to my boss with an estimate of the dollar savings.  at this point, i can't say that this is a dumb opportunity which may not save any money because i've already invested too much time into researching it and *stupidly* committed myself.  

tifu and i don't know what to do.  :-/

TIFU by wasting 8 hours researching a dead-end solution and looking like a fool
