To think he could have chalked up the price hikes to an Excel formatting error! I think we all would have related.

Real missed opportunity.

But maybe he’s so good, nobody would have believed he made an error.

Or maybe he did make an error, but didn’t want to admit it to avoid damaging his “l33t excel skillz” rep. That would be the stuff of legend.
