Subject: RE: Anyone Can Write - Just Look At The Job Descriptions
Years ago at a previous company, a computer operator, in referring to what I do, said to me "So you just type up the documentation". Also, at the same company a few years later, a management type asked me to "tart up the documentation". I am hoping things have changed at least a little since then.

At a four-day meeting I was told by the SME that it was time for me to make his documents pretty.
'Nuff said.
