"Data are organized" looks WRONG to me. Or am I just being clueless?
Our house style is that it's a plural word. To the point that "data is" grates on me terribly. (NPR, I am looking at you.)

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sure, now that Suela's pulling her hair out.
I didn't know there was a word for one data.
Does anyone here have any experience with org charts? I have over 170 people in my section, and in the section there are 12 groups, each with a supervisor.
What I would like to do is list each person with their group in Excel and be able to generate an org chart from that list. The org charts in Smart Art are for an org chart with like 20 people. If you have twenty people, why do you need a chart? Anywho, I've been doing these by hand, updating like a total chump, begrudgingly, every year. I'd update more often if it didn't seem so ridiculous. You can look up people in the directory on our intranet! WHY DO YOU WANT THIS PIECE OF PAPER THAT WILL BE OUT OF DATE EVERY TWO WEEKS? WHY?
Anyway. Anyone have any experience with making org charts?
Visio.
Datum.
I am absolutely exhausted, feeling strained and irritated at people who keep getting things wrong (I might not know the right answer, but I know they don't either), and the torta was spicier than I wanted, so now my stomach is upset. I technically haven't taken a break yet today. Maybe I can sit in my car a little--buy some groceries, and then finish today?
Timelies all!
Trying to figure out why the muscles in the front of my thighs are sore. Maybe it's in solidarity with the various parts of my shoulders/upper back that are twinging...
in my field "data" is plural.
But maybe use a different phrase construction so you don't have to say "data are organized?"
I need like 3 naps.
we call that sleep.
