A strange survey, why assume writers are always less respected workers…..we no longer expect that attitude from the industry so why do agencies still think this?
Because one of the most common
grumbles we hear from technical communicators is about their status. We’ve also found a number of articles on marketing technical writers and similar topics in the STC and similar journals.
As it happens, we’ll probably be closing the survey on Friday or
Tuesday week, as we’ve already got enough responses for statistically
meaningful results.
sorry; many just thought it was very negative and questions loaded toward outdated opinions; time to move on
