You have it backwards. The info I'm entering is off of columns of data. I then have to enter one item from each column onto a page (essentially one row per page). Entering the data from 10-15 columns, one row per page, one data point per cell. YUCK.Gross. Sounds like your front end needs a data entry form. You shouldn't have to work with tables directly. Ever.

I WANT COLUMNAR DATA ENTRY!!!
All those buzz terms translate to "we are going to do everything possible to get rid of as many of you as we can."My wife's company has officially been purchased by the parent company. Consultants are being brought in, which is scary for someone that has been employed there for 20 years and could easily be considered an expendable salary.
We're on pace for early retirement, so a setback would be less than ideal.
Oh, and the letter about the acquisition was dripping with buzzwords. I noted several "synergies", "efficiencies", "seamless", "streamlined", "management platforms", and "strategic organization" mentions. They also used "For now, it's business as usual" to respond to several of their template questions about its effects to employees.
It was painful to read. Hopefully my eyes stop involuntarily rolling into the back of my head soon.
Even though it's scary, chances are she will be retained. Also, depending upon the size of the company and industry, it may work out even better if she's not. She could get a pretty generous severance package.My wife's company has officially been purchased by the parent company.

An Uber's driverless car got into a wreck. Would that make you fill your pants watching it happen and you knowing you can't do anything.
Daughter's 16th birthday is in less than a month. Shopping for a car is making me fill my pants.An Uber's driverless car got into a wreck. Would that make you fill your pants watching it happen and you knowing you can't do anything.
It also brings machines one step closer to self-awareness.I'm pretty pessimistic about driverless cars, despite evidence showing their related safety stats. Personally, I think of the number of times in one month where defensive driving has prevented accidents, and I struggle to imagine the same efficiency without a live driver.

That's what I need.How a bout a smart car? Supposed to make you smarter
About the only way driverless cars would work would be if they are all driverless. Then 6 months later people would be complaining that the government knows everywhere they've been.I'm pretty pessimistic about driverless cars, despite evidence showing their related safety stats.

Every time I see a Smart car stop at a light I expect to see about 15 clowns jump out and run around it in a Chinese Fire DrillHow a bout a smart car? Supposed to make you smarter

Goddamn ******* spawn of the devil whitetailed wood rats (aka ******* deer). Chased them out of my neighbors front yard three times this morning and they just wait a few hundred feet away and return as soon as I go inside. Looked closer and they have absolutely savaged their evergreens, way worse then the damage to my lot.
So, figured I needed to throw some rocks at them. Also figured that submarine throwing motion would work, in deference to torn rotator cuff. WRONG. JFC, that's about as sharp a pain as I can recall. Man, it was like Cowgirl stabbed me in the shoulder with her fish knife. Woof.
