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.
All in all, I'd rather be exempt than non-exempt (and am). In my experience (I've been both, at one time or another), the higher salary that usually seems to go along with not being paid for overtime more than makes up for the chance to earn time-and-a-half every once in awhile. Plus, for some reason, corporate culture seems to dictate that exempt employees are somehow more "professional," and are therefore accorded that much more respect. I'm not saying that that's a correct or incorrect thing to do; I'm just passing along my observations that have come with almost 20 years in the working world. (Ouch.)
