A client's offhand comment about my title block made me check my own standards
I was showing a set of house plans to a client last week, and she pointed at the revision table and said, 'So, which of these changes is the one about the window size?' I had just listed them all as 'General updates' with the date. I realized I'd been doing that for years because it was fast, but it was totally useless for anyone trying to track changes. The look on her face, just confused, was the tip-off. She needed clear info to talk to her builder, and my lazy habit was making her job harder. Now I'm going back through my last six projects to re-label every revision note with a specific description. It's a pain, but it has to be done. Has anyone else had a client call them out on a bad drafting habit you didn't even know you had?
