I was introduced to programming by my father. He's a business analyst of sorts, so naturally he only knows VBA.
After he left his job, some poor soul had to inherit his massive collection of VBA scripts, which more or less automated his day-to-day work. I think he showed the new guy what buttons to press on his spreadsheets, but I can't imagine he understood any of the Excel-fu my father had done. The legacy architecture that is tied to Excel in all sorts of businesses.. it's crazy.
