Re: Rise In Number of Tech Writing Jobs?

[Al Geist <al -dot- geist -at- geistassociates -dot- com>]

I agree with Scott that there seem to be more jobs, but I also agree 
with Michele that most of the recruiters that have called me recently 
have Indian accents and can't seem to figure out that you can't commute 
from Burlington to LA.  This isn't meant to be a slam on anyone from the 
subcontinent, just an observation.   I don't even bother saying I'm not 
interested anymore.  I just treat the calls as I would any telemarketer 
and hit the OFF button.
