The golden rule indeed.

My previous job as pharmacist in pharma company has a lot of grunt job that I tried to automate using only word and excel sheets. It possibly saves a lot of man hour.

Why only excel and word? Pretty much because I almost can't install anything in company laptop. excel Macros also prohibited. I was thinking to create a simple js automation app in browser if it gets attention.

I showed my little automation tools to my superior but it failed to get appreciation nor support.

In the end my colleagues asks for help to run the automation but they refuse to learn how to use it themselves. Bah.

FYI assuming you're on windows from the office suite, python msi installer allows you to install without admin escalation (install just for this user). Definitely a lot easier to automate jobs with python.

Sounds to me like "please do my work for me" kinda ask.
