I have worked in very large departments and in one-person departments.
One aerospace company where I worked had over 300 technical writers when
I first worked there.

At a couple of places, I was the only person in documentation. I had
to do everything. As a contractor, I have been a one-person department
several times.

Each type of job is a challenge. The main thing is enjoying the work
and trying to do the best I can. I still enjoy my work after over 36
years in the business. Every new project is a new challenge and as
long as I am challenged, it is fun.

Even though this job is medium-sized, about 30 technical writers, I still
work long hours. We are allowed to flex a little and I am a morning
person. I get here about six in the morning and leave about five
in the evening. It does allow me to take a Friday off sometimes to make
a long weekend.

When I quit enjoying my work, I will try to retire. Right now I have
no plans for that.

Jerry
