Excel Twitter 20160527

• I’m making a timeline of events in excel, to mix it up. And because I love excel obviously. #ExcelRevision
• Excel sheets at work reached the stage where opening it will ramp up the CPU fan to the maximum for at least 5 minutes
• Two hours of work just disappeared. Thank you Microsoft Excel. Thank you Autosave for not saving anything too. #ImOut
• Crunching hundreds of excel files while hopped on on NyQuil = bad idea. Code makes sense _now_, in a few days? doubtful. #r #sick
• After fighting with a pivot table for 30 minutes, /me discovers the “refresh” button and has a #facepalm moment…
• I’d love it if Excel dropped the Merge & Center option from files I need to import.
• I really need to start pivoting in excel and SQL. But CountIFs helped me do the seating chart.
• I really underestimated how much of my work life would be Excel spreadsheets. Should definitely have paid more attention in school.

• You know it’s a great day at work when you break excel because the file is too big #MyLife
• I just told my dad I’m bored and he told me to “work on my Microsoft excel skills” ummmmmm fun summer!
• Do you even PIVOT TABLE?!
