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.
If it comes to a need to discuss this with a member of staff,
my standard wording is usually more along the lines of,
"Your performance is rated based on your accomplishment
of the objectives you signed onto at the beginning of the
year. You're a professional, and I don't tell you how many
hours you have to work to do this. There are 24 hours in
every day; feel free to use as few or as many of them as
you need."
