Johnny Brown <johnny_brown -at- hotbot -dot- com> wonders:
<Does anyone out there hire candidates that have attended TW Trade Schools?
That is, those that train wide-eyed students and in about 4-6 weeks, then
sends them merily on their way with a shiny new certificate in their hands
after paying a vulgar amount of money, and convinces them that they are now a
full-fledged writer?>
interesting question. I didn't even know that there were trade schools that
taught technical writing.
