– (sorry this is kinda confusing): I have an important report that I run that goes up to a VP every morning. it is in a PDF that is essentially just a saved excel file into a PDF format. I’ve spent months using an app to create an automated version of this report to take the place of this old system. but this week, I found out my bosses want me to make a hidden page in the app that they can basically copy into a pdf format, making all my work feel very pointless. what is the meaning of life?
