Web Content Writers, Beware!
So I’m writing/typing this post one-handed, due to an unforeseen “accident” I recently sustained to my left wrist (thank goodness I’m right handed).
Bruised and broken...NO this did not happen becaused I missed a deadline or forgot to check my sources.
My job at AVID Design is that of a writer, (you may have read some of my work on this blog and on our site at www.aviddesign.com), therefore having my hand(s) and finger(s) fully functioning and in-check is quite important.
While I shall refrain from sparing the details of my “injury” or how it ultimately occurred, I cannot help but provide the following list below of tips for other Web content writers so this “accident” doesn’t happen to you in the workplace.

3.) Never misquote…anyone, or you could get…
4.) If the boss wants you to scrap the whole story you’re working on, then do so…please, or your boss might…
5.) Don’t misspell names or attribute an incorrect title to anyone…or else, because you may end up with a…
If other writers follow these five simple steps in the workplace then all should be well…and you should remain unscathed.
***The subject matter suggested in this post is purely for humorous purposes and is of fictitious nature. I did injure my wrist, however it was not work-related or because I failed at any of the suggested tips noted above. Working at AVID Design will cause no harm to your health or body parts! Guaranteed!
