Subject:RE: Once vs. when, and low pay From:Shannon Luce <Shannon -dot- Luce -at- GE-interlogix -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Tue, 25 Jun 2002 12:57:09 -0400
"At the risk of giving offense, I'd like to suggest that there may
be some connection between the "once vs. when" thread (and similar
threads) and the thread about low pay and difficulty finding a job
in the current market."
Congratulations, you have given offense. Someone's asking a simple grammar,
spelling, etc., question on this list does not mean that that is what they
base their value as a technical communicator on. It means that they have a
question and want our opinions. Personally, as a technical writer/editor, I
find those questions and resulting threads much more valuable to my job than
this drivel about pay and joblessness.
