Every job I ever worked I had to write status reports on a regular basis.

I worked in aerospace for 30+ years. I had to do the same, submit weekly progress reports to my boss so he could compile his report to his manager. That’s how the real world works.

When you’re working for someone its expected that you will keep them appraised of what you’re doing, what progress is being made, and whatever challenges there may be ahead in order to make adjustments to deal with them. Common sense for most people.

Like you, I’ve written countless status reports for my bosses and our clients. Its called communication and coordination — except in the government its called employee harassment.

People who are production and goal oriented are usually enthusiastic about talking about their personal contributions to a team effort.
