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.
You can talk and explain all you want. No one will care. You need to forget
about what they think and do your job. When you put your head down and
produce quality results, people will respect you. When you try like hell to
get people to respect you, they won't. Very simple. You need to produce
quality results without occupying too much of other people's time (just
enough to get the JOB done and no more). Everyone's busy, and they have
their own problems. Taking time out of their working day more than needed
will win you nothing. Good things do not come to those who wait, they come
to those who work.
If you want to read any more of my highly opinionated thoughts on this
issue, please reference the hundreds of other threads like this in the
archives.
You can learn a lot from commercials: Just Do It.
