One lead carpenter's corner bead complaint stuck with me for a month

Ngl, I used to just nail corner bead on and mud over whatever gap showed up. Then a lead carpenter on a job in Boise pulled me aside and said my corners were 'fine for a handyman but not for what we're charging.' He showed me how to pre-bend the bead to match the wall angle instead of forcing it straight, and that saved me a whole coat of mud on the next three units. Has anyone else had a foreman or GC call out something small that ended up speeding up your finish work?
