"Uh… we have sort of a problem here. Yeah. You apparently didn’t put one of the new coversheets on your TPS reports."

I have to format my daily work log two different ways, one in a PDF and one in a word document.

I have the same problem, so I spent a month of my free time writing a reporting tool that does this for me. It sorts my activities into tasks and updates, and I can generate reports based on dates/tasks/etc. It's been a life saver for those stupid reports.
libreoffice has a script to convert word to pdf on the commandline.
