Sharing Feedback on an Assignment Gone Wrong

I've been working for a partner for two years now (since I started with the firm) and I still have no idea what he wants. He assigns something to me and tells me what he wants, but when I deliver it, he tells me he wanted something different. Last week is a perfect example. He asked me to prepare an outline for a deposition he'd be taking, and he told me that all he wanted was a topic outline with reference to the key documents. He specifically said he didn't want any questions.
