Narrative:
I was told that my manager needed to see me. My supervisor told me I missed extra verbiage; I needed to add 'installed pitot and static port were covered' placards to the log page and maintenance XXX-xx-00 was not enough and showed me where the sign off on the maintenance task was with. I thought 'referencing the maintenance XXX-xx-00 was enough to cover the procedure on the log page. Then he told me to go install the placards on the capt's yoke because of the audit.installed the 2 placards on the yoke.my manager had my fact finding and told me the same infraction. I may have been a little distracted trying to figure out how to get all the tags to fit on the circuit breakers for the pitot and static port heat. They were too close together to fit all the tags. I must of thought I installed them on the yoke after tagging the circuit breaker for the pitot and static heat.I didn't mention it in the fact finding. The announcement of possible involuntary layoffs may happen. That has been weighing in the back of my mind. I would be embarrassed if I mentioned that; I know professionally [I'm] not supposed to let that cloud my judgement while doing the job.
