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.
I hate to jump in on this "me too" thread, but I recommend you accept
the invitations from the bosses you respect, and leave the rest in
waiting status so you can observe any changes to their profiles.
If you want, you could be malicious: contact the questionable, or
accept and then leave a negative recommendation that their performance
and professional conduct were not acceptable.
You'll find that when you look at things black and white, the choice
becomes easy. (I've never left a negative recommendation, but instead
chose to hold their invitation until I could think of a positive
outcome for our connection.)
I also set a hard policy for recruiters. I may have to be more
explicit about the terms of engagement. I think I may also have to
clean out my contacts to find the active connections.
