What's even worse than vague directions? No direction at all. I worked with an Art Director on a couple photoshoots who wouldn't give me any feedback. I heard a lot of, "Yeah, that's nice" and "I like it." She said she preferred not to control the situation. But in my opinion, that's the Art Director's job.
I want an Art Director who will bug me about every last detail and force me to work harder to get a better result.

"make it sparkle"

"Paint It In"
"Less bells and whistles"
"Lock up you your type"
"Pull the rabbit out of the hat on this one"

Discussing the work:
"Yeah, I think it's cool. We all think it's really cool. But you have to get rid of the overprinting...it's not a battle I want to fight tomorrow."Way to go, boss. Way to stand up for us.

When I'm approving or critiquing work, I always try to be specific. Saying "I don't like it" or "start over" is bullshit, and offers no value on how to improve (well, maybe start over does). Backing up suggestions helps the designer with..... wait for it..... direction!
Otherwise, you get into unnecessary rounds of revision from a designer who's trying to read your/client's mind.- < also, I realize this isn't what the original post requested.bulletfactory
