Hi, Diane...I've turned down about 4-6 unsolicited requests for resume in
the last 30 days, including one this morning for IBM. You might be right.
I think your last comment:
>>even though the offer was for nearly twice she is earning now
To me, that is even more encouraging as maybe they're getting tired of the
"I own Word...therefore I be a tek writr" respondents.

Or am I just lucky?
I have received two unsolicited job interview offers in the last 24 hours,
and was offered a job that I interviewed for last August. Maybe the tech
writing world is thawing out again...
