• Hmmm this excel file is 11mb. That seems kind of big. *Checks work*Huh. Seems that I copied data in column B into infinity. Did not know was possible. #todayinaworknutshell
• All these years in priding myself as an Excel guru and I’m just figuring out how to move a pivot table
• I have to take an Excel class for my major and I just finished the in class work and the homework within 20 minutes of the class starting and the dude is still talking about how to add charts
• if you tell excel to make a pie chart with 5,000+ slices it will crash and then decide to make psychedlic art instead
• Dear excel users. When in doubt between a pretty table and a table that you can analyze, always choose analyze. If you feel tempted to merge cells or put in skinny rows and columns to make it look nice, Resist! Word and powerpoint do pretty. Excel is for work!
• Things that take 2 minutes to do is a full day of work people here. Excel isn’t that hard.
• *meeting at work*Person 1: I can’t get this excel row to work Person 2: highlight both cells and click merge Me: MERGE TO FORM DEVASTATOR!Room: *silence*I get bored at work
• You never forget your first pivot table. And I was theirs.
• The 3 years I spent at uni having to use Excel to calculate data has just came into use when nobody in the office could work out how to do it….. I felt like a God waltzing in and showing off my skills x
• I just learned how to create a macro in Excel. WHY DIDN’T I KNOW ABOUT THIS SOONER?! This changes everything.
