Re: "Are technical writers the unsung heroes of document generation?"
Monolith hires both Writer A and Writer B (as contractors). Writer B (in Boston) works any hours he wants -- 2 hours on Monday, 10 hours on Tuesday, 5 hours on Wednesday, 20 hours on Thursday, whatever. He puts in 40, 60, 80, or more hours per week as he pleases. It's a contract with a due date and the work is there. Monolith pays Writer B $60/hr for every hour worked. No special OT stuff -- no time-and-a-half, no double time. Writer A (up in LA) is capped to 40 hours a week according to the deal, because of the state law. Writer A can earn a maximum of 40 hrs x $60 per in a week, or $2400. In a typical week, Writer B can earn double that or more, by virtue of not having an OT law in his state that vetoes the FLSA exemption.
