My previous job was to be exactly this person who checks documents for completeness, correctness and sometimes, when needed, for formatting. It got so boring I had to change position and I am now the one who writes all that shit that creates these documents en passant because the more important thing is the product produced. And yes, our quality standards have to be higher than the ones in the food industry (it's required by law), so you can imagine that situations like those in this chapter are very common in our company. Some of them are more like yelling competitions than normal arguments. Mental!
Speaking of being chewed out, I can tell an anecdote: I once reprimanded a coworker for complaining all the time in front of our boss, and she chewed us out for it. Two weeks later, together, almost yelling at us and we just looked at each other like "uh, is she for real?". What she didn't know and never learned: This guy sometimes needs someone who tells him to fuck off in order to work properly and since I did it for two years again and again as de facto teamlead, I could keep the entire team running and from breaking apart. Now, about a year after me leaving the team, it is more or less nonexistent in its original composition. A typical example of the Peter Principle out in the wild.
