I only submit reports to my boss when he asks for them, either in person or by email.

I do this maybe once a week if he's not at the office and maybe 2-3 times a week if he is at the office. (It really just depends on his mood.)

Whould you mind sharing one of these reports with me?

Emailed reports are usually project-specific, like "Projects X and Y are done, I'm stalled on project Z with this issue...".

In person it's usually a 2-minute meeting where we clarify which projects are done, which are priorities, etc.

...and sometimes the 2-minute update meetings turn into 2-hour planning meetings.
