Re: STC Salary survey??

[kcronin -at- daleen -dot- com]

I've always found the salaries in that survey to be fairly accurate;
however, at the moment they do not necessarily reflect the current
salaries at which TW's are currently being HIRED in this
less-than-wonderful market.

In many cases, the salaries probably reflect the earnings of many people
who were lucky enough to have kept their jobs, skewing them higher than
the current market.

I know I'm thrilled every day my key card still opens the door at work. I
lived through five or six layoffs that reduced my company's size by 90%,
and assume I'd be looking at a 10-to-20K pay cut if I have to find a job
elsewhere. We live in interesting times...

Still trying to get my company to outsource our tech writing to Maui, with
me willing to relocate to spearhead the effort. So far, no takers.
