At Barbeques Galore, we're all about cranking up the knowledge, not just the coals! Today, the team took a break from the Barbie to learn some spreadsheet sorcery with a fun Lunch and Learn session on Excel. Big thanks to our resident Excel guru, Ben, for sharing his wisdom and turning us all into excel-lent spreadsheet wizards. One of the main quirky take outs was how to include emojis in your report!
