No matter how bad things get in Excel, remember to keep calm and carry on. Maybe some club music, or a few minutes in the freezing outdoors, would relax you.
- Made a lot of stupid Excel mistakes last night… They were all blindingly obvious after a full nights sleep. Damn it!
- Excel just crashed. Lost my whole days work (yes I know I should save it periodically but I didnt). Fed up now.
- Just made a pretty impressive pivot table. Now sitting for a while feeling terribly smug.
- My excel spreadsheet looks EXACTLY like the picture in the instructions.

- i love google for random excel questions… never knew about that "text to column" function before and it just saved me 2hrs of manual work.
- The SERIES function for chart data is more flexible. than I suspected. Fun to tinker with it this way. #excel #Walkenbach #charts

- I really do love starting the day with a well-done Excel chart. #excelninja
- Dear MS Excel. When I tell you to quit & you have issues, just quit already. Don’t search for a solution to the problem & prolong the agony.
- Day in the life of an excel spreadsheet: Get woken up. Bore people. Annoy people. Mess up a few formats. Get screamed at. Go back to sleep.
- I realise I CAN cope with Excel forms if I colour code as well. Thus it becomes "colouring-in time’ and not ‘maths’
- Struggling with Excel spreadsheet with one eye on my Keep Calm and Carry On poster. Must follow that advice b4 laptop ends up in garden…
