Number 6, Jack and Nico as members of an interdepartmental team (be it paranormal or otherwise)

buzzfeed unsolved/ghost files au perhaps?? hear me out for a moment... 👻

6. “I appreciate the effort but this is all wrong.” 

There's a lot more administrative work that goes into ghost hunting than most people realize.

That's to say, about eighty percent of their work is mainly administrative clutter, five percent is actual ghost hunting, and the other fifteen is sitting around in the cold and the dark for hours on end wishing for a cup of hot coffee or an extra blanket.

It's a testament to how great Nico is as an admin team lead that everything goes to shit the second he calls out sick for the day. And oh, they're a hot mess.

Nico "Workaholic" Hischier actually tapping out to recover is about as rare as a Bigfoot sighting. They'd probably have more luck getting a clear FBA on camera. Or Nessie swimming up to say hi.

Jack's a seasoned pro when it comes to ghost hunting and when he's got a camera pointed in his face, but he sure as fuck doesn't know how to use formulas in an excel spreadsheet (what the fuck is a =SUMIF even supposed to mean.)

Still. Jack won't let that deter him for his next goal: surprising Nico by helping him clear out the admin stuff for their next leg of the ghost hunting tour in (checks his smudged, hastily copied notes) Australia. Damn.

It's a good thing Nico labels all his files. Jack sometimes just leaves the transfers from his handheld in his download folders until Jesper yells at him for not labeling footage again.

There's absolutely no ulterior motives for him taking this task on, no, not at all. Jack's definitely not trying to impress Nico with his deep understanding of expense tracking sheets (zero), or his organizational skills (abysmal), and his ability to cut the per diem cheques (he fucked up and had to void so many cheques Jonas shoved him out the door and told him to look up hotels and flights instead.)

It's the thought that counts, right?? Nico takes care of them so often, it's only right that Jack tries to help out. Sure, he's already texted Nico twice this morning to check in, then ordered him a surprise delivery of chicken noodle soup and immune-boosting smoothies, and then sent some get well soon flowers too because his mom once told him flowers are always a sweet gift. But this is practical. And Nico is nothing if not a practical dude.

Jack doesn't manage to make the excel file look good, but at least he's got colour coded columns and he's managed to find a few good deals through their frequent flyer points. Something's bound to be useful.

And so, Nico returns the next day, not 100% yet but clearly over whatever twenty-four hour bug he's got going on. He's bundled up in a sweater and he's sipping a herbal tea, voice a little scratchy but his sincerity evident when he thanks Jack for the care goodies.

"Really, you shouldn't have, I would've been fine sleeping it off--"

"Neeks, babes, just shut up and let me look after you, yeah?"

(Nico's face had gotten really red at that, and Jack was worried his fever was back before Nico's cheeks returned to their normal colour.)

He'd been hopeful when he eventually forwarded Nico the link to his spreadsheet, stuttering through his explanation of the flight options he's gathered, rental cars, and hotels that are close to the airport. He's even made a list of late-night restaurants, because everyone's starved for greasy takeout after a long overnight shoot. Nico is staring, wide-eyed, at the file when Jack's finally done explaining. And he's quiet for a long, long pause.

"I. Jack. Thank you, this is--so incredibly kind of you. I really appreciate the effort, but this is all wrong."

The words would've been utterly devastating if Jack didn't see Nico's enormous, genuine smile, clearly holding back a laugh but not because he's making fun of Jack. Instead, he gestures for Jack to pull up a chair, making room for him behind the desk, and leans over to show Jack the itinerary saved in his perfectly organized OneDrive. (Jack tries very, very hard not to shiver at their close proximity, and the comforting scent of Nico's shampoo in such close quarters.)

"Our next shoot is in Austria, not Australia."

"Oh, for FUCK'S sake--"

send me a jacknico prompt!

Hey silly question but how do you make the google submission thing?

I wanted to make my own tumblr poll but i don’t really know how to do that gbfbbcv

There are a number of tutorials on YouTube, such as this one:

I'm not sure if they cover this, but be sure to link your form to a Google Sheet so you can better track and organize your data. You're also gonna want to learn how to use commands like UNIQUE, VLOOKUP, IF, COUNTIF, SUMIF, and CONCAT if you want to sort through your data easily and grab some fun stats as a bonus. An Excel program also helps so you can copy your data in cells as plain text so you can use the sort command to sort alphabetically, largest to smallest, etc.

Good luck, anon!

Bruins players as Excel functions, sorted by usefulness and exactness of match

(you're not the only one bored at work)

the scream I let out when I saw this ask -- I love you

Bergy: =INDEX(MATCH). The bread and butter of all Excel functions. Beautiful, versatile, and powerful, it does two things at once (indexing and matching) and is there to defend your spreadsheet against all errors

Marchy: To us he is =AGGREGATE() which allows you to do all sorts of summary stats in a dynamic way, i.e., via ignoring any grouped out rows, subtotals, and crucially errors, much like the way we overlook his long history of questionable decisions LMAO. To the rest of the league, I am afraid he is a =VLOOKUP() with exact match set to FALSE, which is to say extremely unpredictable and annoying

Pasta: =XLOOKUP(). He is the super dynamic, powerful, next gen function what can I say?

The goalie tandem: =SUMIFS(). Man, the way they are joined at the hip, they are like two functions merged into one AND they keep the world turning -- where would we be without sumifs after all?

Zee: =LARGE() I could not help myself

This is all I've got for now but everyone is welcome to add more for the rest of the squad and I do take constructive criticism.

[wigglesforsquiggles]

remembered how the sumif function works in excel, millions injured and dead (so much time wasted)

[transdelgado]

excel has such an ability to make me feel so inadequate... what do you mean my sumifs formula is yielding zero i WILL kill myself

Ưu điểm của việc xuống dòng trong 1 ô Excel trên MacBook

Trong quá trình làm việc với Excel, đặc biệt là trên thiết bị MacBook, người dùng thường xuyên gặp tình huống cần trình bày nhiều dòng nội dung trong cùng một ô. Đây là lúc tính năng “xuống dòng trong ô” trở nên cực kỳ hữu ích. Không chỉ giúp định dạng bảng tính khoa học hơn, việc xuống dòng còn mang lại nhiều lợi ích đáng kể về mặt thẩm mỹ, dễ đọc và tăng hiệu quả làm việc.

Xem thêm : Cách xuống dòng trong 1 ô Excel trên Macbook

Trong quá trình làm việc với Excel, đặc biệt là trên thiết bị MacBook, người dùng thường xuyên gặp tình huống cần trình bày nhiều dòng nội dung trong cùng một ô. Đây là lúc tính năng “xuống dòng trong ô” trở nên cực kỳ hữu ích. Không chỉ giúp định dạng bảng tính khoa học hơn, việc xuống dòng còn mang lại nhiều lợi ích đáng kể về mặt thẩm mỹ, dễ đọc và tăng hiệu quả làm việc.

1. Tăng tính trực quan và dễ đọc

Một trong những ưu điểm lớn nhất của việc xuống dòng trong ô là giúp thông tin rõ ràng, dễ theo dõi. Thay vì để một chuỗi văn bản dài trải rộng sang nhiều ô, bạn có thể chia nhỏ nội dung thành từng dòng ngay trong một ô duy nhất. Điều này rất hữu ích khi cần mô tả chi tiết, ghi chú công việc, trình bày tiêu đề hay ghi rõ các bước thực hiện. Người xem chỉ cần nhìn vào một ô mà vẫn có thể đọc hiểu toàn bộ nội dung một cách thuận tiện.

2. Giữ bố cục bảng tính gọn gàng

Khi bạn không xuống dòng mà để văn bản tràn qua các ô kế bên, bố cục bảng tính sẽ trở nên rối mắt và khó quản lý. Việc xuống dòng giúp giữ toàn bộ nội dung nằm gọn trong một ô, không làm ảnh hưởng đến các ô bên cạnh. Điều này đặc biệt quan trọng khi làm việc với các bảng biểu phức tạp, có nhiều cột và dòng.

3. Thuận tiện cho việc in ấn và chia sẻ

Khi in bảng tính Excel, nếu nội dung không được xuống dòng hợp lý, phần văn bản sẽ có nguy cơ bị cắt xén hoặc tràn lề, gây mất thông tin. Việc xuống dòng giúp đảm bảo bố cục in ra chính xác như trên màn hình, chuyên nghiệp và rõ ràng hơn. Ngoài ra, khi chia sẻ file cho người khác, bạn cũng tránh được tình trạng người nhận phải điều chỉnh lại bố cục để xem được đầy đủ thông tin.

4. Tối ưu cho các ghi chú, mô tả hoặc nội dung dài

Trong các bảng báo cáo, kế hoạch hoặc danh sách công việc, bạn thường cần ghi chú chi tiết ở từng dòng. Nếu chỉ sử dụng một dòng văn bản, nội dung sẽ khó đầy đủ. Nhờ việc xuống dòng, bạn có thể viết nhiều nội dung hơn trong một ô mà vẫn đảm bảo dễ hiểu, không gây rối mắt. Đây là cách hiệu quả để ghi rõ thông tin mà không làm bảng tính bị “phình to” quá mức.

5. Tương thích tốt với các hàm và công thức

Nhiều người lo ngại rằng việc xuống dòng có thể ảnh hưởng đến công thức trong Excel, nhưng thực tế tính năng này không làm thay đổi giá trị của ô, chỉ ảnh hưởng đến cách hiển thị. Bạn vẫn có thể áp dụng các hàm như IF, VLOOKUP, SUMIF hay TEXT như bình thường. Điều này giúp bạn kết hợp được cả tính năng trình bày và tính toán hiệu quả.

6. Thao tác đơn giản trên MacBook

Trên MacBook, thao tác xuống dòng trong một ô rất đơn giản: nhấn tổ hợp phím Control + Option + Return khi đang nhập nội dung trong ô. Tổ hợp phím này tương đương với Alt + Enter trên Windows. Người dùng MacBook không cần cài đặt thêm mà vẫn có thể sử dụng tính năng này linh hoạt.
