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.
Holidays, deadlines, competing egos... stress builds
in all forms.
Please remember this:
An expressed opinion contrary to yours is not a flame,
or an enticement for a potential flame war. Responding
directly to another's post with contradictions is not
an attack. But, it can turn ugly if 1) we form our
words as an attack, and 2) we respond attackingly to
something we perceive to be an attack.
No one person is responsible for these nasty e-mails.
It's a sign of poor communication, and as you know,
successful communication requires success on both the
transmitter side and the receiver side.
Can we please put the nastiness aside and treat the
discussion, to matter how detailed or forceful the
messages therein, as a discussion?
