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.
"The golden rule - whoever has the gold makes the rules."
The above is quoted from a recent post. I, myself, have
posted similar advice to this list. Note, however, that no
doctor, lawyer or accountant would post such advice in a
public forum. (They might follow it in practice, but could
not afford to admit it. See "Enron" for details.)
Is there a point at which a Tech Writer is obligated
to step outside that 'golden rule' mode?
If so, where is that point?
