I’m really good at finding flaws in things. It’s not that I’m trying, I guess I just use things differently. A colleague of mine told me I should be a tester for product development to help find the problems when I asked him why some software worked the way it did. He just said, “I don’t do it that way.”
Consequently, I’m excellent at writing manuals because I always write them in such a way that no one will make the mistakes I did. The real bummer is I HATE WRITING MANUALS.
I am this way. People think i’m being negative, but i don’t mean to be. Problems just jump out at me. Luckily, I found a job where this tendency is valuable.
People who write good documentation never know how much they are appreciated.
Oh god i would honestly be so good at writing manuals. I absolutely hate most manuals i read, because you can often tell that the guy who wrote it was also part of the team that build the thing, so often they explain it in a way that makes sense to him and his team, but not the end user.
I often write short manuals for my sisters for a lot of her appliances. So at least she appreciates my talents.

Exactly. They skip steps or refer to a part that’s not named or have inconsistent naming. All kinds of things.
