Subject:Are we a "professional society"? From:"Williams, Diane (contractor)" <Williams_Diane -at- DOTE -dot- OSD -dot- MIL> Date:Wed, 5 Nov 1997 13:01:16 -0500
Would y'all consider youselves as a sort of professional society? I sure
do learn a lot here with my fellow Tech Whirlers and Tech Commandos!
How many of you have listed being a member of the Technical
Communicators or Technical Writers mailing lists on your resumes (along
with STC, for example)? Should I add being a list member to both these
groups on my resume?
Whaddaya think? :-\
