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.
Ken Bowes summarizes the recent posts: "Andrew feels that almost everyone
is looking for a way to do the least possible by any means possible, and
Rick thinks that someone who dedicates their life to their work is a fool."
I have to jump in and defend Rick's argument here. The sub shop guy is
working 13-15 hour days and driving around in a Mercedes. If he has no
family and he's in love with his car, maybe this is a viable lifestyle. But
if he DOES have a family, his kids will barely even see him, because he's
too busy slaving away to pay for his shiny automotive bauble. They'd be
better off if he drove a used Honda and spent his evenings with them.
