    I somehow managed to avoid excel my entire life, and I’ll be so lost whenever using it is actually going to be required of me

      Get on Google sheets or something to stay organized… Learn how to use index match and how to nest formulas (e.g. countifs, sumifs).

      It’s incredibly frustrating when someone at work can’t navigate an excel file or a spreadsheet.

        I love google sheets. I made some nifty little functions in it. Then I discovered appscript and things got a little weird. I made an automated CRM system. An automailer. An animated dancing badger made by changing the colours of the cells. It gets a bit hazy after that.

        Oh, I know the feeling, be it in other areas.

        😬 I moved from a restaurant job to an office and live on Excel now. I have probably not used it for 10 years before this. I’m beginner level for sure. Any suggestions on how to improve quickly?
