Every day. Fast Forward.
Everybody loves to hate the Excel-sheet. The model that shows the necessary cuts to costs. The model that shows the hockeystick blowing into the sky. Any model, really. But don't blame Excel.

I come from a small town in the Western part of Jutland and aside from red sausages (don't ask) I was brought up on really good, traditional bakers bread (and it showed).
