Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

It's a failure in education. Companies just don't train staff in how to use Office. You're expected to just already know how.

Office is incredibly complex and powerful, and most users probably only know of a hundredth of the feature available.

True, but Office is also really shit in a whole range of ways, some of which make it confusing.

Fortunately, I get to refuse to use it ;-)

Occasionally I'll use LibreOfice Calc if I need a spreadsheet.

I just can't find anything in Calc :(. I'm too used to Excel, which I made a career out of at one point.

I can't find anything in excel either!

[–] Dave@lemmy.nz 2 points 2 years ago

Haha at least in newer versions of excel you can search for what you want and it will tell you which menu to find it in. I haven't seen that in calc.
