I disagree. The important (and successful) sections at PerlMonks are not split up by subject matter. They are split up by intention. Which section you post to on the subject of the work/business side of being a Perl coder depends entirely on your intention when posting.

If you are seeking wisdom regarding your work/business environment or if you are meditating (that is, sharing some realization you have come to) about work, then you'd post to the obvious (I hope, given my phrasing) section based on that intention.

Which reminds me that I'm tempted to rename SoPW to SoW because I still see too much "not really a Perl question" whining. The site is here for Perl coders to interact. It'd be right boring if the only questions people could ask had to be "really" Perl questions, especially given how some people seem to interpret that.
