Snappier than what?? Morse code?? How do you respond without screaming in Arial?

"You sure can, throw it in Chat GPT and let me know what you get!" I hate this kind of feedback. Give me something concrete and defined to work off of or handle it yourself.

I'm a great believer in always striving to make things snappier. But at some point you do hit the wall and you just can't snap things any harder. In a situation like this I guess the best response is to write back and say, "Sure, I'm open to suggestions." A lot of times people honestly have no idea what they want, and if you throw it back on them they'll stop with the unhelpful commentary.

Do I look like a crocodile. I hate these generic feedback terms. We're writers, surely we know enough words to properly convey our feelings

Journalism is the best job in the world but I feel like people are less likely to take my work seriously because I am female.

Is there some way I can tell my supervisor that yes, I do like those stories, but I like being a serious reporter even more?
