Movement in still life
posted Tuesday, 27 July 2004
Week 2 of being a technical writer and I've just about met everybody in the firm apart from the MD. However, he's making some time later on today and seems personable enough. The company itself is a weird mix of many, many developers (all of whom are used to firefighting as my friend called it - rushing around from problem to problem) and some slightly annoyed looking sales/marketing types. Nobody dresses up apart from the new graduate (who is a little intense to talk to) and the whole place is extremely informal. This is a good thing. I'm not sure I could stand a firm where due process takes precedence over being able to solve problems.
