I hate excel…
Today started out in fantastic fashion.
To get a proper perspective, I have to go back to Saturday.
As part of my duties, I get to audit timekeeping for 140 people. I have to telnet, using an Attachmate client, into Electric Boats’ timekeeping system. I have to write out the info into a spreadsheet. Approximately 4500 entries per week. 8 hours per week.
God, I am so lucky.
I had finished the audit on Saturday. I had rolled up the paper, stuffed it into my back pocket and walked down to my office on Pier 4 and when I got there, I did not have the papers. A search turned up nothing.
OK, FINE!!!! Eight hours down the…
So I decided to move on. I went to lunch to gain some strength for the afternoon. I then attempted to review some other spreadsheets that needed my attention. The link I had was dead.
SON OF A BITCH!!!!
Now to Monday…
The papers turned up…WOOO FUCKING HOOO!!!!!
Tuesday…
I am locked out of the Attachmate Client. God dammit!!!
The link for my other stuff is still dead. I call my counterpart in the business office. She sends me to the file that the link was to. Wrong. The changes I had made were not there.
I hate spreadsheets.
I asked her to look into here Recycle Bin…There they were…Next time…send me a link to the network drive…mmmkay…
