atw: Re: Tech Writing Soap Box

Mary's job ad is wonderful.
I'm sure that "Create training manuals" most likely means photocopying
manual pages and assembling them in a folder, not writing them.  But
even so, it puts an important publishing task only slightly above the
making of coffee and tidying the kitchen.
 
I'm left pondering the relative importance of coffee.
If a manual has some pages the wrong way around it's easily fixed, but
if the coffee is badly made it ruins the whole day.  Shouldn't the
making of coffee be at the *top* of the list?
