Hypothetical situation: You are a senior level technical writer with 15
years experience managing your employer's documentation group. You are
making $60-70K a year as a full-time, salaried employee. Your employer is
telling you that the company has reached its limit on your services. They
can't afford to give you any more than a standard cost of living raise from
this point forward. A job search in the surrounding metropolitan area
reveals that other companies are in the same boat for someone with your
qualifications.
1. If you don't want to relocate, but you also don't want to throw away all
of your hard-earned experience, what would you (personally) do to ensure
your income increases? How would you continue to "be a writer" and make more
money than you're making now? What type of work would you look for? In what
industry?
