IT

Scripting menial tasks isn't that hard. You can learn basic shit pretty easy. It's a nice little dopamine hit when you get even something small that works. Make your computer work for you, not against you.

Also, Excel. If you have to use Excel at all in your job, learn the basics of formulas, formatting, and tables. It will take you maybe a day, and your excel shit will look 100x nicer, and work 100x better than whatever the fuck you are doing now.

I found out last year there's an entire Microsoft Excel World Championship and my mind was blown.
