A document in the workplace...

A document in the workplace is "a moment in the continuous process of communication." A professional writer must be able to participate in this process. When writing a document pertaining to work, a professional writer must realize that what they are writing serves a purpose to communicate to others currently and in the future. The knowledge they put down is used to teach and inform others on what is happening in the workplace. The PW must know that their information will be read by others in the hopes of gaining insight to what is currently going on. The "moment in the continuous process of communication" should be a reminder to the writer that what they write will continue to inform others of something that happened just once in one point in time. The more a PW accepts this theory, the better able they will be to write something that will continue informing others long after the event is over. The professional writer must be able to put themselves in the position of the reader and try to connect with them to see the bet way to communicate the information. The writer must always have the readers in mind to ensure the continuation of communication and information.
