OTOH, based on the comments I'm seeing in this thread
from writers who say their companies are requiring or
"expecting" technical writers to work overtime and are
setting work schedules for same as if they're assembly
line workers, it may be that there really are substantial
numbers of technical writers who actually are employed
as "glorified secretaries" rather than legitimate
professionals.
