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.
This is where it gets tricky and political. Some would argue that on-site
daycare is an extra benefit that people with children receive, while
co-workers who remain childless don't get anything comparable. Considering
the cost of daycare, this is not an insignificant outlay. Is it fair? Why or
why not? Is it something we should be aware of as we moving up in the ranks
from writer to manager?
I am genuinely undecided on the issue, having heard some really good
arguments from both sides.
