If you've never had to work evenings or weekends to meet a deadline, then you're one lucky writer. :-)

I like the people I work with. But I will say that several of the developers continue working after they get home. They remote in from home and write code at night. I don't do that. I like to relax with a good book when I get home, and switch gears altoghether. Maybe tech writers are "just" a more well rounded bunch.
