So, this job was recently posted on LinkedIn:

 

Job Description: Employer's client is looking for 5 technical writers to add
to an existing team of trained authors.  Yes, the job title is Technical
Writer, but get this in the list of qualifications:

 

The desired candidate will have a specific technical writing skillset. NOT
to include IT, technical or medical writing experience.

 

Uh, yea - maybe the first technical term that the potential employer should
learn is "oxymoron."

 

Happy Early Friday,

 

TVB
