The first time I saw this subject, I thought it read "Tithes" and I was
pretty excited. A ten percent piece of the action sounds pretty good about
now.
Anyway, I'll also add one of my favorite technical writing titles, courtesy,
I believe, of Hewlett-Packard:
Learning Products Engineer
The reason I like the title is because, by my interpretation, it means I can
not just write, but engineer my documents. In other words, tinker with them
long after the first customer shipment was due, all in the name of
improvement.
