...And I'm sorry, but just because you "know Word" doesn't mean you can
learn FrameMaker in a snap. And vice versa. I want to know what tools you
used in the past, and for how long, and what you created with them (a
pamphlet? a book?).
Tony Markatos responds:
This sounds like the comments of a Kelly (Temporary) Services placement
specialist looking to place a computer operator - for about ten bucks an
hour. Really!
A manager who hires writers on such considerations believes the Tech Writers
lack motivation.
