John Eldard asks...
In an 8 hour period. How productive do you think a technical
writer or editor or illustrator can be? Is it practical to
think that since a corporation is paying a technical
communicator for 8 hours work that every time the supervisor
looks in on your cube you must be busily writing, drawing,
editing?
