I've had friends, family, neighbors, and acquaintances, come up to me
and say, "So, you're a technical writer now, eh?"



They will squint and cock their heads while they're looking at me.
They're not quite sure what a technical writer does.



However, when I nod and say, yes, I'm doing documentation (which is
correct), they understand immediately.



This must have been discussed previously around here, but I'm throwing
my recent experience out there anyway.
