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.
I agree. If they're going to insist on behaving like total idiots, this is better to know early than late. It might not be a deal-breaker; some of us thrive in such environments and enjoy a well-earned sense of Hero status when we can successfully lead a company singing and jubilating into the 21st Century (or kicking and screaming as the case may be). There is great risk and the potential for great reward. It's still important to know what we're in for before we agree to put our hoohoo into the wringer.
Just remember the Drama Triangle from _Codependent No More_: if we jump in as Hero, we are inevitably doomed at some point within the cycle to rotate to either Villain or Victim.
