TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Likewise, having been in sales for 15+ years, after you've had to ask
someone for their signature on a 2 million dollar purchase order or
ask for an appointment when you KNOW they don't want to see you,
asking them for their approval on a couple of paragraphs of
information or for a 15 minute appointment for information is a snap.

> Once you've knocked on someone's door uninvited to ask them
> how it feels now that their kid is dead (and we had to do
> an awful lot of that in the '80s) it isn't so hard to approach
> a taciturn engineer.
