Re: Tech Writer Lawsuit

["Gene Kim-Eng" <techwr -at- genek -dot- com>]

OTOH, based on the comments I'm seeing in this thread 
from writers who say their companies are requiring or
"expecting" technical writers to work overtime and are 
setting work schedules for same as if they're assembly 
line workers, it may be that there really are substantial 
numbers of technical writers who actually are employed 
as "glorified secretaries" rather than legitimate 
professionals.
