Does Microsoft Word Have A Pay Stub Template: Fill & Download for Free

How does having knowledge in programming benefit you outside of work? Has it saved you money, time, etc in real life?First, I did not begin as a full time software developer.When I was a humanities student, a program I wrote produced me a paper. Not word by word… I had to chose a poet, read (all?) his work and write a paper about him and a subject of his. And what I did: I came up with a list of words for death (common subject, just like love) and wrote a crawler and parser for the website (Hungarian Electronic Library) the poems were on. Out of a hundred and so poems, the program identified a dozen that seemed to mention death in one way or another. So my paper was Death in the poetry work of XY, read two poems for the introduction, and the rest of the paragraphs were comments about the citations the program identified, ending with the statistics that death was indeed an important subject in XY’s poetry. I got praised for the paper by a professor pretending to be rigorous, thorough and deeply scientific, but in reality just an anxious and pretentious poor guy. The morale of this story, something I knew before writing the program to produce the paper: as the XKCD goes. So I kinda agree with those who consider not to pay too much for humanities in general.When I worked for the state radio’s local studio as an editor, news anchor and host (small radio, mixed up roles), I noticed the repetitive nature of the tasks. So I automated a huge deal of my job. I wrote and deployed a crawler that searched for news and store them in a database. Keyword stubs have been extracted and based on the stubs and the URL, categories were assigned to each story. Based on phrasing, copy-pastes or near copy-pastes were fairly easy to identify. So the program could judge the importance of a story: economy/politics/terrorism and the more repetitions, the more important the story was. So the program displayed me a digest of the stories that appeared nationwide and on local websites. Then I wrote an editor package, because writing stuff in word… (yes, public institution, of course it had a contract with microsoft and displayed its **** products instead of using free software). This editor contained a dictionary (there are many Hungarians in Romania) I could invoke solely from the keyboard, without using the mouse, and key macros that produced diacritics (ever tried writing s comma on windows xp?) and/or predefined longer texts. Then based on the number of syllables it estimated how long it took me to present said stories. And produced a printable form, with headers and footers, that otherwise would have been written by hand: datetime, author of the story, source of the story (news agency or website). The weather forecast I wrote from yr.no, after deeming the ANM (National Meteorology Agency) fairly unusable (reliability and contract issues both happened). The rss feed was detailed enough to make it fill in templates and produce a microphone-ready Hungarian text. A few days of work went into it and it worked for two years, till I left the press as a whole and became a full time developer. The currencies… for some reason, it is part of the news, 1 dollar costs 3.x lei, 1 euro costs 4.x lei and 100 hungarian forints cost 1.x lei. For this, the National Bank of Romania provided an RSS, so I generated the microphone ready text from that feed, for years, never even revisiting the code. It just worked. Another was a phone book that knew translations and synonyms and would search by name variants too. Hungarians may have Pálfi, Pálfy, Pálffy and so on for the same sounding name.I made a great deal of the software ensemble available to others, but some just refused to use such blasphemous witchcraft and chose to go on doing stuff by hand, always appearing busy and indeed being somewhat busy. You may get that appearing busy is important at a private company with the manager chain smoking in a shadowy corner. But in Romania, in a public company… that’s just not how things work. It just isn’t, meritocracy is something rarely heard of, and look at this poor country.My hobby, one of my hobbies, amateur astronomy, is a very technical one. I wrote myself and released it to the public, a photo planner. Sounds simple and easy but I found it to be missing from the palette, so I wrote it. It suggests targets for the selected location, datetime and instruments, given the position of the object, position of the Sun and that of the Moon. One part of it provides a guide to align the mount. I charge the batteries I use for the gear using a raspberry pi controlling the dumb chargers. Same software package mentioned above survived into my personal blog and aids me while writing about my observations.The public transportation company isn’t exactly a swiss clock but an app I wrote helps me not miss my bus. The app predates any google or proprietary solutions of the company (they have a data harvesting app that asks for a little too much in exchange for the time tables), so based on the geolocation, distance from the bus stop and the crawled time table, my app estimates whether I’ll catch my bus by walking comfortably or not.And I could probably go on.
