TECHWR-Ls:
The compensation message to which we are all responding seems a bit off-base
after further consideration. If Carla is on this list, one could assume a
certain amount of professional savvy -- at least enough to know appropriate
salary ranges. Methinks, we've been duped. Perhaps, this note was a fishing
expedition to see what writers are being paid.
This leads me to ask. What impact can we have over salary/compensation. How
are these prices determined? How can we influence the salary range?
