Work laptop running slow today, so what do I do? Simultaneously start a huge Git push, big SVN export, Cygwin update, compilation of a massive Java app & complex Excel macro.
It’s basically the geek equivalent to a parent’s “Stop crying or I’ll give you something to cry about”.

Hell, it’s too bad tracking ANYTHING in Excel doesn’t make you rich… I spend so much time using it, I’ve been thinking I should change my name; which do like better, “Wrap Text” or “Pivot Table?”

Today at work I wrote an SOP that I will share below, only slightly simplified:
1. Open Excel file
2. Click macro button #1
3. Click macro button #2
4. Repeat for the other Excel fileI’m sure someone will still do it wrong.
