Well, Fry's isn't using it anymore now that they've gone under...
Hell, they weren't really using it when they were solvent. :facepalm:

"Yes."
"Can you write?"
"Yes."
"Sorry, you're over-qualified for the job."

I'm not even going to tell you how much I'm making as a tech writer right now, but it's... nice.

More than a lifeguard? :rofl:

Depends on what the lifeguard is guarding.

Early 60s, just married, went for a job interview as a Tech Writer. "You can't be a Tech Writer, that's a $10,000 a year job."
Age discrimination.

$73,542.82?
58 years, call it 3.5%/yr inflation X $10,000...
1.03558 x 10000
But of course, cost of driving, parking, clothes, diining out for lunch, etc is $63,542.82... right? So you're back at $10,000.
