When I mention it to someone who *does* know what a TW is, I invariably hear
either, "Oh yeah, I've done some of that," or "Oh yeah, my
girlfriend/wife/sister/neighbour/housesitter is a technical writer at
Nortel/wants to be a technical writer at Nortel/married a technical writer,
I think he works at Nortel."

Or, given the employment situation there, perhaps "...used to work at
Nortel" is more apt to be the case!
