Whats the most frustrating recurring weekly task admin task you still have to do as a tech person?

If you are blessed enough to have fabric capacity and a really progressive Office365 Admin (or a underconfigured environment that doesn’t prevent you from doing things by default) and a power automate subscription you can basically do anything with data without having a ton of expertise and without disrupting those who are too comfortable with their excel sheets to endure the tiny switching cost of handling data thru a toddler friendly front-end to a real DB. i havent figured out if they are all stupid or realize the impication that 75% of their job is just them manually handling ingest of data that already exists and that there excel rats nets only exists to support its own weight Im firmly convinced if given a $250/mo budget (the cost of the lowest fabric capacity tier) and the freedom to FAFO (management behind me to prevent a defacto and cowardly “No” from IT) I could really modernize an environment. That could mean making a lot of people redundant (the people who justify their existence by being glorified copy and paste bots) or just greatly enhancing business intelligence and making data driven decisions while shifting us away from a reactive process to proactive process with better observability and greater use of inline data to increase output quality AND quantity This requires you work somewhere that is big enough to have plenty of process data to pull from but small enough (or backwards enough) to not realize the power due to not already having mature data pipelines and dedicated internal devops/data engineers. IMO this actually applies to >50% of office jobs. If you don’t measure your labor through physical output then your job is a data job but no one is bothering to learn how to handle data
