Nice to see Mr Kennedy in this series!

I applied for a technical writer job and dude wanted a writer, graphic designer, photographer, programmer, and mechanic all in one, for less money than any SINGLE one of those roles would pay. Not today, Capitalists.

There’s gonna be a new term called ‘full stack technical writer’ at some point lol. This is the same thing Developers are going through, we don’t just code. We do devOps, cloud engineering, a little of our own technical writing, basic UX design, etc. Every field is becoming more multi disciplinary.

Or just maybe those various skills wouldn't be used as much as a full timer of one of those professions. Maybe there isn't enough work of all those and only 1 position is needed to fulfill all those?
