Chopped Liver?

[Pro TechWriter]

Being a BA pays better than tech writing, but only if you are working :-) I
know both of those scenarios.

I *feel* like chopped liver today: My gigantic RoboHelp knowledgebase needed
an update that I got at 3:45 today (I go home at 4:30) with a document that
is like 60 pages in Word! Needless to say, I am finishing up now at 7:15 pm,
only because I cut and pasted the updates into the topics instead of
re-creating the document.

Then, my boss calls me and asks if I have written the instructions yet so
that the admin can update the RoboHelp file when I am not here. OH YEAH.

HAHAHAHAHHAHAH <--hysterical laughter.

What will they do when all the templates lose their links and they have to
be reapplied every time??

Chopped Liver indeed. :-(
