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.
The habitual practice of having employees work
unpaid overtime is why contracting is so
attractive. When I've given presentations at
STC meetings concerning employment, I urge
people to "do the arithmetic" when it comes to
calculating compensation. How much are those
so-called benefits really worth?
Cheers.
