"Exciting" Adventures at Work

[aggienaut]

So i needed to make one change to a table in a PowerPoint slide, but the table was an image.



Now a table could have been made in PowerPoint, or excel, or i happened to recall this table was also used in a word doc, so the original could be in any of those file types. It was a bit of a complicated table so i didn't really want to have to make it from scratch. Looked at every likely file in the documents folder, looked for it in other PowerPoint presentations, even looked, i swear, in the "image elements" folder, couldn't find it.

Finally decided to remake it, it didn't in the end take as long as I'd spent looking for it. Decided okay i won't lose this again. I actually take pride in how well organized my computer is. None of this "everything just on desktop" i see some people dealing with. The dear wife has even commented "why can't you organize the house as well as your computer" 🤣

So the logical place for this is documents/image_elements, it's something used in slides and docs after all. I go to save it there under the most logical name "miticide table" and what's this, there's already an excel file there by that name ... yes it's the original. ::FACEPALM:: -- I SWEAR I LOOKED THERE!!!

Anyway that's how exciting my life is these days
