NeverSurrenderOffice 2010 has already been released. If any BBs are still using Office 2003 by the end of this year, they really need to get their shit together.

Dude, all BBs use 2003. What are you talking about?

I'm saying it's time for an upgrade.

Do you disagree? Do you think they should keep using 2003?

 
DontMakeMeShortYouMany BBs do use 2003...

I can attest to that. I sent a guy my resume and it is formatted for 2007 Office and it couldn't open. Mental note, always send resumes in PDF's.

 

Depends on the area or group. I'm in BO and we use 2003 in my department. A different BO group that is on our floor uses 07. I don't know about FO groups. Either way, Windows 7 has good reviews and 2010 is coming out soon, and I wouldn't be surprised if the banks starting upgrading everything to W7/2010 Office Suite.

looking for that pick-me-up to power through an all-nighter?
 

Going from 2007 to 2010 is like getting a tummy tuck...except there's heavy post-op scarring.

You know you've been working too hard when you stop dreaming about bottles of champagne and hordes of naked women, and start dreaming about conditional formatting and circular references.
