futility….

I’m transcribing some hand written data (dates) into a spreadsheet. The dates are supposed to be used to figure depreciation on the items listed on the sheet; but it seems to me to be an exercise in futility….

The quality of the hand written data ranges from “barely legible” to “let’s take a wild ass guess” and most of the dates are expressed as indeterminate ranges as in “over 2 years” or as a range of years for a single item rather than as discrete dates…

That’s what I have to work with so I’ll type it in and pass it along….
