Hey, everyone! I know it's been awhile, but I finished my internship. I learned more in three months than I think I learned in all my time at any other job. The financial world is more complicated than it seems, I guess. Anyway, a new semester has begun and I'm already swamped. Don't know when I'll post again. Don't fret, though, as I do have something to discuss. More specifically, I'm curious about whether technical communication as a field will expand or contract in the coming years. I find it appealing as a profession, but the job description for many professions can fit into this field. Writing has been a passion (you wouldn't guess from how infrequent I've been posting here, but you know, I do write away from the internet) and I wonder how writing as a profession will fare when it comes down to me going out into the world, looking for a job. I know, I know. The economy has been flushed down the toilet, and we're still trying to fish it out with a bent wire hanger and a wad of chewing gum. Nonetheless, I still have to try! What use is it to take a job I will never like and let it eat at my soul like mental cancer?
Okay, discuss away (if anyone is reading this!)
