I remember seeing a similar one for engineers and contractors long ago, referencing the "spesserfactions".

This is a reprint from MADD Magazine, right?

When I start up a project, I politely inform the architect that I intend not to be playing "Where's Waldo" when he/she send new drawings over. When I make structural changes, which I know will affect architectural features, I give a written overview of my changes when issuing progress plans. I expect the same in return. How often do I get it? 10% of the time due to Special Condition #5. Grrrrrrrr
