Unpopular opinion: I used to write client reports like they were college essays

I mean, back in 2020, my monthly reports for our Seattle bakery client were like 15 pages long with charts and footnotes, idk what I was thinking. The owner finally called me and said, 'Tyler, I just look at the part that says if we made more money.' Now I use a one-page template that just shows the three main numbers and what we're doing next. Has anyone else had a client just totally reset how you do a basic task?

Unpopular opinion" is just you learning, not a real hot take.

Wait so if I call pineapple on pizza an abomination and someone agrees with me, does that mean I learned nothing? Guess I'll just keep my mouth shut about socks in sandals then, tough crowd.

Spot the real unpopular opinions when they make you mad, not when they teach you something new.
