I’ve been a few exciting meetings that had Excel projected on the wall, but overall, today’s Excel tweeter gives a valid rule of thumb. And if Excel is your second least favourite thing to do, what’s the worst thing?

Swell: Excel 2010’s splash screen has annoying animation: Shoot me now…
After 3 hrs of fighting my Excel chart to use my category labels, I realized I was using scatter plots and not a line graph. D’oh!
And now we move on to my second least favorite thing in the world: Creating an excel spreadsheet. UGH!
Great, an excel spreadsheet copied into a PDF, now I can’t get this damn data out. Thank you!
Looks like im doing work on excel but on closer look – its actually a footy tipping sheet getting ready for the season. The fever is here
Its 3am and I’m teachinh the Hygiene Manager how to use Excel "how do I draw a box?"
People… Why not delete those extra default sheets in your Excel document instead of teasing me with the prospect of more info?
I just wasted 20 mins of my life taking practice tests for excel, I know how to write binary code I think I can figure out the dumb program
briefing went well. the agents liked all we had for them. apparently I’m the new excel expert, so I’ll be making charts the rest of the day.
Nothing seems to work. Time to move on to next chart? But that one is a pie disguised as a gauge. Its even harder #excel
Attn Excel Users: I know graphs are exciting what with the colors and shapes and whatnot, but just because you can doesn’t mean you should.
I find Excel kind of constraining as a design tool too. Good for prisons and monasteries though (lots of cells)
Excel graph is driving me crazy. Complete trial and error with trying to make this data display correctly.
hey thanks for making that database. you know what would be really good though is if you could put it in an excel spreadsheet like i asked
Microsoft is 35: Remember Clippy? Microsoft Bob? The Excel 2007 math bug? Here are many more highs and lows: http://bit.ly/bNkdnk
the excel skills i learned in that computer apps class i took TWICE at rutgers is really helpin me out at work right now lol
yes love the capability of excel bit i am a programmer – i should not be doing excel work 🙁
Rule of thumb: if your meeting has an Excel spreadsheet projected on a wall, it’s probably not a very exciting meeting

Trains full of men working on Excel at 5 AM? Wow, I’m glad that I don’t have to commute. But maybe they were just calculating how much they’ve spent on comics over the years.

It took me 2 hours to make one gantt chart in excel. Something here really needs to change.

A glass of red, some old school RnB and an Excel spreadsheet full of business requirements. Sometimes working late can be fun!
going to pay a colleague quite a lot of money to finish my expenses. Too much work to do, plus utter loathing of the Excel torture required
I just created an excel spreadsheet to calculated my GPA, and it turns out that I can get strait Cs and still keep my scholarship.
My wife did the math in Excel. I’ve spent $22,100 on comics in my life. That’s $1,527 per collecting year. I’m ok with that.
It’s barely 5am and already this train is full of MEN doing BUSINESS. There’s barely a table where an Excel spreadsheet isn’t being examined

It’s fascinating to read the Excel tweets, and learn what people are doing with Excel. And be prepared — that could be your daughter who’s using Excel to convince you that a tattoo is a good idea. Or worse, your kid could be one of those politicians!

Pagan-ish? I’ve never connected Excel to paganism, but that might explain some of the strange error messages that I’ve seen over the years. Or maybe those errors are a result of the flibbertigibbet functionality.

Anyway, it’s good to see that some tweeters relaxed over the weekend, and enjoyed some Excel art and a bit of Yahtzee.

And up, and up and up he rises (not very) early in the morning. Probably pagan-ish but will have to work on a website and excel macros.

In the Friday tweets, the Excel users seemed to be looking forward to a weekend away from Excel. One person even deleted Excel from a laptop, to avoid working from home. Hmmm…that’s not a bad idea!

And Dave says it was Scott Adams, of the Dilbert comics, who created the Boss button page for the NCAA March Madness tournament website. That should help the guy who’s flipping between Excel and espn.com.

Without fail, the worst parts of my job involve someone sending me an Excel doc.
Dear Excel, stop wigging out. FOCUS! We’ve got a report to finish! And a bazillion pivot tables and graphs to chart.
Excel literally just ate four hours of my work from today. The help desk guy said, "Sorry, file corrupted, I can’t help you." #killmenow

Wow, putting “all business stuff” into Excel must be a pretty big job! But not everyone in Twitter is that busy – some people seem to be focussed on March Madness.

I think it’s hilarious that CBS/NCAA switched the "boss button" on #mmod from an EXCEL spreadsheet to a PPT file #ncaa
If you’re having issues with my spreadsheet, try learning how to use Excel instead of sending me a bunch of crap I have to manually enter.

Great, now that Love Shack song is stuck in my head. Maybe some chips, chocolate and Coke, or a VLookup formula, will drive it out.

Excel says I divided by 0 and I didn’t. Computers are stupid.
After doing an Excel spreadsheet, there’s 7 NFL teams I like/love and 7 teams I despise/hate

No one was making Excel related St. Patrick’s Day plans in Twitter yesterday, but they were busy doing other things, like trying to get Excel to look good on a Kindle, and losing all their tax entries.

Finally figured out how to convert date&time to elapsed hours on excel, sense of achievement marred by headache from lack of sleep.
Maybe it’s "mess with the really nice people who don’t deserve it" day for Excel!
I concerned; I speak excel as a second language but I don’t organise my life thru it. I only know one other person that does…
Just lost my entire day’s worth of work by closing the wrong excel file…crazy. So how about that there Monday???
Yay sunshine, too bad I’m indoors working on a dumb lab report… Excel needs to start giving me more reasonable numbers…
dear excel spreadsheet with >18000 cells I have to worry about, you’re making my laptop make funny noises. >:(
