Same and I'm American. Although as an American, I always struggle with blanket statements because we have wildly different standards for literally everything depending on where you are. I live in a major city that isn't LA or NYC

To be honest, probably. The vast majority of users don't need the advanced features of excel. I've seen people be awed by pivot tables. I'm sure some people need those extra features, but I'm guessing vloopup is about as

Honestly, I think we need more shame. People feel so righteous doing these things to employees because their establishments bend over backwards to accommodate customers. We need more store bans and public shaming. People shouldn't thin

I've been at several companies with unlimited PTO. I've it it go the following ways: 1) no questions asked until a secret limit (usually 3-4 weeks) and then you're likely to be denied based on your manager's judgment 2)
