Excel Twitter 20160212

A boss who is a boulder might not appreciate your new pivot table and VLOOKUP skills. Maybe you should give up using Excel for a while, or explode a few pie charts.

This Week’s Tweets – Plain Text

Here are the tweets in plain text. The embedded tweets are below.

• This girl couldn’t get the Autofill on #Excel to work since she kept spelling February as “Februrary”
• Just fixed an Excel Pivot Table AND a Moodle Forum question in quick succession. GOD I’m marginally smarter than those around me
• Think I may have just killed my laptop using only Excel and an Index-Match function. #nerdytweet #FML
• “Hey Google, I need an Excel formula that’ll give me a count of rows that match this other value” “That’s literally a pivot table” “OH YEAH”
• Last night I learned vlookup & pivot tables. I regret rejecting my dad’s attempt to teach me excel & code. 14yo me should’ve known better.
• “I work with data” “Like big data?” “No, small data, like building dashboards in Excel” “Ah ha, I called that intimate data…”#data
• That moment when your boss mentions that you missed two tabs in the Excel sheet. *Charlie Brown scream*
• My boss to me when I said I couldn’t teach her my job in 3 wks: “I’ve actually used Excel a lot, just never for formulas.” #wut #excel #lol
• I just learned what a VLOOKUP was in Google Sheets. Excel is like programming, except you are always writing minified code.
• If your boss will be impressed by your knowing 6 excel hacks then you’ve got a boulder for a boss.
• There’s a pie chart option in Excel called “pie explosion.” This is 0% explosion versus 50% and then 100%. pic.twitter.com/iJ7nu5qeoM
• I will never understand IT job postings. Wanted: Candidate should have a Masters in a quantitative field. Duties: Pivot tables in Excel
• I’ve decided to give up using Microsoft Excel for lent. Friends say it’ll never work but I think it’s an Excel-lent idea.
• A scatterplot problem woke me up out of a sound sleep. This is why we can’t have nice things, #Excel.
• Stop tweeting and get on with your excel work.
