TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Personally, I dislike this way of looking at things, as well as
"work/life balance" and "work to live vs. live to work." All
of these imply that life and work are different things. My
work is part of my life, and I won't sacrifice enjoyment or
satisfaction in one part just so I can finance other parts and
seek them there. If I find that I am regularly not enjoying
my job enough that I occaisionally find myself thinking that
I might just go on doing it even if I became fabulously
wealthy, or that my job is crowding out the other things
in life that I enjoy that much, that's my first warning sign
that it might be time to look for another one. How many
hours a week that might take is one of those "it depends"
things.
