Depends on what you bring to the table, but a good Business Analyst could bring in more than a Tech Writer. We are not considered that highly.

You guy's comments along with another I received the other day are
giving me pause. (Menopause?)
Or, more like depression. Too early for Menopause.

At any rate.

The conversion went like this:

The person is in Denver. She has beena Business Analyst and has done
Tech Writing/Proposal-Grant Writing (as we know there is overlap).
She is depserately looking for work - she is between contracts. I told
her to consider Tech writing. She said "Oh, naaah. I want to stay a
Business
Analyst. For on thing it pays better."

Are we in the Chopped liver section or somethin' ?

Your comments to make me feel better would be appreciated. Especially
today when I found out this year we OWE the IRS.
