Subject:FWD: Contracting on the side...ethical? From:<anonfwd -at- raycomm -dot- com> To:techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com Date:Fri, 13 Oct 2000 00:16:10 -0600 (MDT)
I am employed for a dot.com start-up company as a technical writer. I was
approached by someone who works for another dot.com in my building, to see
if I would be interested in contracting with them for technical writing
work. Is it unethical to consider doing this? I had not sought the work,
and I am happy in my present job, but I must admit I am intrigued at the
notion of contracting, and I'd like to find out more. I'd like to know if
any other Techwhirlers had this situation arise, and how they handled it.
