I kinda became infamous for my in-depth documentation.
It only helped that I had technical documentation lessons prior to my job and (kinda) knew how to write for a specific target audience (e.g. amateur, pro, expert)
Okay, but you have to consider the audience here. :P
Maybe certain people would consider it dry, but a professional and systematic understanding the motivations of the human condition and how to communicate with various kinds of people is the bread and butter for folks who don’t (necessarily) intuitively understand it, and are thus forced to make an amateur effort to understand the motivations and communication styles of people.
They looked at me like a hot piece of french toast when I told the interviewer I enjoyed writing documentation at my last job.
Honestly i would assume you
Edit: i meant “hire” not “assume” i am gonna keep the error because it’s funny
For those who are confused by this post, “assumere” means “to hire” in Italian
I feel so stupid for using “assume” instead of “hire”
Self note: never write something in english as soon as i wake up
Eh it happens, especially once om you write confidently without paying too much attention

Not gonna lie, that sounds interesting
Incredibly dry.
Remember those are the reasons why your manuals read like they do :p
But besides that: Very useful.
