Re: Client woes: a question to ask yourself...

Perhaps there is still some sense that academia and business are two
unrelated fields, and that mentioning business is almost to soil one's
hands, so to speak. This is sometimes (or often) the case in university
programs. However, this attitude should definitely be curbed in a technical
writing course.

The idea that money and business discussions are a little distasteful
pervades other aspects of interpersonal dealings also.
