## The task

Take a request you made this week that came back disappointing. Add the four things. Send it again and compare the two answers side by side.

## The steps, in brief

- Write down what you actually want, as a verb
- Add who it is for, in your own words
- Add how long it should be
- Add an example of what good looks like, if you have one

## Where it usually goes wrong

- The answer is still generic.
- It is too long no matter what you say.

## What happened
