Work Style Grid
You're the person whose spreadsheet nobody has ever had to double-check. You'll find the one broken formula in a file that's been "fine" for a year, and yes, you're going to mention it. People who work with you know: if it passed your review, it's actually done.
You bring precision to things other people are content to leave "close enough." You'd rather take the extra time to get it right than the shorter time to get it out.
You're the last line of defense before something goes out the door, and people are generally glad you are. Some find your pace, and your comments on the fourth revision, a little much — right up until the one time it saves them.
Catching what everyone else missed, calmly and without drama, before it becomes a real problem.
Thoroughness is a genuine strength, but not everything needs the same level of scrutiny, and "good enough to ship" is sometimes actually good enough. Perfect and finished aren't always the same goal.
