The job sheet in Jersey that made me question my whole setup

Last Tuesday I picked up a rush job in Newark and the print on the job sheet said 'tolerance +/- 0.005' but the part drawing clearly showed a press fit that needed half that. I ran the first piece and it came in at 0.004 out, so I stopped and called the engineer. He laughed and said the sheet was a template from a different customer, and the real spec was on page 3. I took a minute to check every page after that, because now I figure 15% of the job sheets I get have at least one outdated line. Has anyone else caught a bad spec on a multi-page packet that would have scrapped a whole run?
