I just realizing going through the files from a campaign that is almost over that there's a "small, insignificant, not life threatening" error,
it's quite small, yet quite visible,
no one said anything, so I believe no one saw it,should I come clean or just pretend I didn't see it

depends what it is. Spill the beans...

multi subject campaign,
the 120x180 poster have the call to action first letter capitalized, when all the other adaptions don't
the only reason I found it out is that I need re adapt it,
I didn't make the exec file but I signed it

who cares. obviously they haven't noticed. live your life and don't put your brain through this. this is the kind of shit that makes you die early.
because you know you'll be on your deathbed when your 88... "god.... i should've capitalized that first letter on that random campaign I did 60 years ago. If only.............. "
- this. don't sweat the small stuff...at the end of the day (or life) it REALLY doesn't matter.exador1

While not saying anything is the easy option, speaking out shows that you have character and you don't take the easy way out.
If your boss tries to use this against you, you simply turn it around and say I could have kept my mouth shut, I made a mistake and I wasn't about to make a second one.

Start circulating rumors about readability issues for that particular size.

Let sleeping dogs lie. Seems like a minor issue in the scheme of things.

man up and come clean
- sure, if it was a major issue. but this is stupid and tiny and will only make him look incompetent.CanHasQBN
- coming clean is admirable when you're coming clean about something somewhat significant...CanHasQBN
- he won't gain much, if any, respect for telling the truth here. they'll tell him to pay more attention and go back to his desk.CanHasQBN

and the cons definitively outweighs the pros...

What your superior will take out from your confession:
"He's an outstandingly decent guy but lacks attention to detail. Right in time, I needed an excuse to cancel this year's bonuses.
Elisabetta? Book me that flight to Aruba for New Year's Eve, will you please"
