Subject: What do you write?
" this is a small enough company where everyone already knows how to
perform their job from pre-existing documentation and notes. "
For now--until a critical player retires or transfers to another company.
I've been asked on my latest contract to make sure that the other contractors ARE creating the internal documentation for a fairly complex system they'll leave behnid when the contract winds up. And that all those documents end up in some kind of library.
