My supervisor said my weekly status reports were 'a wall of text nobody reads' so now I put one number at the top
Six weeks ago she told me she skims to the second sentence and stops, so I started leading with whatever changed most, like "11 late shipments this week, up from 3," and suddenly people reply with questions instead of silence, has anyone else had a boss give feedback that direct?

Wait your boss actually told you she skims to the SECOND SENTENCE and stops? That's brutal lol. Most managers would just smile and nod and never say a word while your reports rot unread in their inbox. The fact that she told you exactly where she bails is lowkey a gift, even if it stung at the time. And it worked too? People replying instead of crickets is wild.
