That 8-year-old could probably figure out a way to monetize staring at a spreadsheet. Let’s hope that she doesn’t end up working for the government! Has anyone figured out how to monetize pretending that you’re looking at a spreadsheet at work? SumIf formulas are my new best friend, Vlookups can go play in the traffic….
When was the last time you were rewarded for your good work in Excel? Did you get a nice bonus cheque, or some jajangmyun? Yes, I had to Google that! Making an Excel spreadsheet of all the TV shows I want to watch categorized by on/off air, starting/catching up, etc. Yes I am that geeky….
Hell might be one long Excel spreadsheet, but our Hair should look good! And it can’t be worse than creative advertising. takin my pivot table skills to 11. watch out! hah, i’ll get it eventually. Fact: before 2007, i didn’t know what a pivot table or vlookup was. look at me now! #question: is there…
Excel shouldn’t make you cry. Maybe the tears were caused by too much Red Bull, or a bad weather forecast. Shhhh… don’t move. The spreadsheet is calculating. #hugeexcelfilessuck STUPID MICROSOFT EXCEL. I’m just going to fail my project, I guess. Exce; 2007 is extremely stupid. I only want to copy filtered row only. Why cant…
If you want some time off next weekend, to watch baseball, don’t tell people that you know how to use Excel. Or claim that it’s given you carpal tunnel syndrome, and you can’t work! Does it get any better than working on an #Excel spreadsheet while watching a little @SFGiants baseball. I think not. time…
Chef vs. Excel – now that would be an awesome show for the Food Channel. Who would win the Bar Chart throwdown? I love the lady justifying her MBA by saying it helps with her couponing. Um – you don’t need an MBA to use Excel. #extremecouponing I would tweet the crazy Excel formula I…
Don’t get distracted by a Hot Pocket commercial, or you might end up checking Excel data in your next life – in Office 2011, in a VM. Sorry. I got distracted by an Excel spreadsheet and a Hot Pocket commercial. This is the story of my life. I know I am really out of it…
The opposite of Excel VBA efficiency is using a shared Excel workbook. Probably an overpaid consultant recommended it. Words fail to describe what a hash these two overpaid consultants have made of what should be very simple work in Excel. #smh Just spent 10 min on the phone w/ my boss on her EXCEL spreadsheet….
Excel is a wonderful tool for uniting nerds. And yes, that includes moms, trains full of businessmen, and Iron Maiden. Now, get back to your highly paid job of making Excel pretty! I have clearly lost my mind. I am programming an Excel Spreadsheet in VBA to make locker selections. Probably shouldn’t be desk-drumming along…
Are your shopping lists colour-coded and sorted in Excel? Silly question, I know. There are only 65,536 rows in an Excel spreadsheet, and the columns only go to IV. Unfortunately, I know that & have maxed both. a woman shopping today won Lister of the year! not only was it printed out from a computer,…
Is it possible for a pivot table to be too smart? Let’s ask Excel – it’s smarter than we are! Or maybe the dancing hippo has an opinion. Is making #Excel dance….. But how long till it collapses like a fantasia hippo? the part of the pie chart labeled "me going out tonight" keeps getting…
It’s great when the week ends with awesome reports in Excel, instead of a “head meets desk” moment. found the worst. code. ever. it reads an excel file and relies on the *background color* of the cell to determine the field/meaning to parse With so much of excel work this week I hereby honour myself…
If you need to liven up your Friday, try a three-part Excel formula, or a pivot table song. Hmmm my excel macro within a macro just went kaboom … #excel I battled MS Excel and I WON. Now that I’ve impressed my boss by working late, I think I deserve to leave before the lights…
Excel gets love letters and hate-filled odes, gushing compliments and stinging insults. But it’s all worthwhile, if you get to work on a crazy wok project. (I hope that’s not a typo for work!) You might think it is a good idea to remove a filter on an #Excel sheet with 195,000 rows. You are…
May the 4th be with you! Yes, it’s a bad joke, but worth mentioning once a year. And in Excel, the force is in the pivot tables. #excel is NOT a #DataWarehouse. No really, it’s not. Great, messed up my nice Excel spreadsheet .. it seems to be stuck in some infinite Paste-loop. Let’s give…
Would you rather have Excel mentioned in your eulogy, or LOLCats? That’s an easy decision, unlike the choice you might have had, if you voted yesterday. Have just learned you can put background images (of lolcats, obviously) in Excel charts. This case study just got real. Teaching your mother-in-law Excel formulas and functions should earn…
Yes, if you have more champagne, that spreadsheet will balance. Or it will fix itself. Well, that’s the way I remember it! Spent two hours trying to get this massive excel spreadsheet to work properly. Went to lunch, and came back and it fixed itself! /headdesk! My excel assignment should’ve taken me 30-45 minutes. Because…
Like everything else, Excel had to compete with the Royal Wedding for attention yesterday. Some welcomed the break, and others ignored it. Would rather be in #work than watch the #RoyalWedding … Cch, excel, sage, outlook … I’m missing you guys! =sum(you+me) resulted in an error. Excel should never write a love song. #officeboredom everyones…
Even if your glasses are bothering you, never mock the spreadsheet! It might retaliate by crashing, or giving you vertigo. WOW! I love staring at Excel spreadsheets! Doing so gives me vertigo without drinking! Spreadsheets refusing to open. Taking it as a sign from the Excel Gods that I should deal with this tomorrow. #peaceout…
Yes, Excel has become a bloated pig, compared to the earliest versions, but if your 81-year-old mother can deal with it, so can you! I almost quit my last job over a spreadsheet. Things can get ugly when you’re dealing with Excel. Could you please cross ref this 500 line Excel sheet with this 20…
I use Excel for meal planning and recipe calculations, but didn’t realize you can use it to cook the books too! Got to use CONCATENATE, IFERROR and VLOOKUP in one client spreadsheet. <3 Excel. #nerdlove Yeah not fun at all 🙂 Excel and I have a love hate relationship. I hate crunching but then afterward…
Volunteering is a great way to learn about Excel, and building an NFL spreadsheet is good practice – even if you don’t get to use it. The first step to breaking your dependence on Excel is admitting you have a problem. Trying to decide whether it is worth it to build a 2011 NFL spreadsheet….
What’s your biggest problem with Excel? Not enough colours? The default font? Your boss? I’m making a budget spreadsheet on Excel. What am I? 47????

Excel can be fun on the weekend too – fill your days with puzzles, colouring and sheep-induced naps.

It’s super effective. mmn, nothin says "fun" like…
No, Twitter is not Excel, but it’s easy to waste a day in either place. Twitter rarely crashes, but you’ll feel awesome when you master Excel. Well, that’s a nice Excel Spreadsheet, you’ve go there, Pilgrim, but you might wanna clean up your macros in Visual Basic Stuff like that. Oh, crashing Excel workbook, why…
Poor students! Don’t they suffer enough, without having to learn Excel too? Their teacher is being irrational! Excel is a wonderful tool for many things. Statistics is not among them. // is this true?! #Statistics #Excel Actually heard: "Why won’t my Excel worksheet show fractions?" Reply: "Sounds like it’s being irrational." #ouch i’m like nearly…
Awesome — a boss with a sense of humour. That almost makes up for a lack of Excel skills. Of course, we can debate that, during yoga class. not yet, ah i don’t even know how to use excel 🙁 but i’ll attempt it tonight, is it hard? Only in my world does a quick…
That Barbie workbook was pink, I’m sure, and would probably make you feel queasy. At least the boss wasn’t working on that – her Excel file was blue! I just spent the past 30min w/my boss picking out a shade of blue to color her Excel spreadsheet. #thatkindofday They see their lives through screenshot eyes/…
What’s wrong with running PowerPivot on XP? I don’t have to justify myself! But it’s strange that the tweeter assumes I’m a man – maybe I need more rainbows, and less dynamite, on my website. Wunderkind: a young lad with basic familiarity of Excel (today it was "The Pivot Table") in an office full of…
Cursing John Walkenbach – didn’t they make a movie about that, starring John Cusack and Cameron Diaz? And speaking of movies, don’t let that Invesco video give you pie chart nightmares! Prior to this Excel class if my boss had asked me to Concatenate his Function I might have sued for harassment… Curse you Walkenbach!…
Yes, it does sound tempting to run off and drink champagne, but no one said it would be easy. Stay at your desk, and savour the small Excel victories. Ever noticed that the only time you work on learning Excel is when you actually need to do something with it and it is due today?…
You’ve heard of Excel pie charts, but what about custard charts? They sound equally delicious! And disarming. I’m the Director of IT at my office. Excel just shutdown and I lost a days worth of work. Just so you know it happens to us too. i love how the "show quick preview" printing option in…
A pig, some bricks, and a whiz. No, it’s not a fairytale, it’s just another day in Excel. Grab some coffee and buttered paper, and get started. if i were you i’d just delete the excel worksheet, uninstall excel and tell your (big?) boss to shove it…. but i’m not you =) I wish Excel…
Don’t blame Excel when your wedding goes over budget – it can’t order a fighter jet on its own! However, pastel pie charts wouldn’t cost much, and make lovely decorations. I wonder what the world would be like without Excel. Ok, I think my spreadsheet is now current. Dear COO, please to be not adding…
Back to work after a lovely spring weekend, and some people are cringing when they open Excel. What about you? Hung over? Or Awesome? Burying myself in a spreadsheet, hiding from the METs playing consistently – consistently bad pitching, consistently bad clutch hitting… sleeeeeeeepppp – this spreadsheet was a far more complex mire of cells…
Unlike Marshall’s company, we don’t have a graphics department. But if we had one, they could work on the Zombie Apocalypse prediction charts. I hate it when info for a spreadsheet is plopped in my lap at the last second, and i’m told to "make sense of all this". Excel – you are rubbish, I…
