Comments for comments sake
What are the most ridiculous / infuriating comments you've received from higher-ups?
Normally my MDs and VPs are pretty good at providing constructive feedback that actually adds value, but I swear the amount of times I've had to change the number of decimal places for one freaking number or move a box in ppt 0.01 to the right is astounding. I totally get that materials banks produce have to look extremely professional / client-friendly, but there's a certain point where not much value is being added, imo.
“pls fix thx” with no context…
the absolute worst!
Almost 99% of footnote comments are worthless. Let me go back and edit the PPT then PDF again just so we can add one word to the footnote that nobody even looks at anyway.
6 PM - a miracle happens, VP to me: "looks good hence no comments, send to MD"
22 PM - MD to VP: " Did you comment on this???"
23PM - VP :"No, @me: lets tweak 'a perfectly nice' page 5 , lets add footnotes 'where there is no space', lets 'do the impossible and' fit last 3 pages into 1..."
