I make spreadsheets for fun, what is wrong with me?
Literally dozens of spreadsheets just for fun, some I update daily almost like journalling
Also can't this get me a job? Like I don't know if I should do my hobby as a job but working in the spreadsheet mines in a cubical farm sounds like a dream come true
There's nothing wrong with you, it's just a form of structuring thoughts and information just like journaling or diaries are for some people. Like Llituro said, if you learn macros and databases your skills would be invaluable for almost any company. Every company needs spreadsheets, but most of them are just basically banging rocks together and getting by with some spreadsheets some intern wrote ten years ago, mostly because no one actually understands them (there are way too many people who fill the spreadsheets by hand, then calculate the results with a calculator and fill the results in to the spreadsheet by hand).
My first office job was interning for a municipal office, and as a part of my job I did some very basic spreadsheets just to help my work (and learning it on the fly). I ended up helping people who had been working in the same office for 5-10 years whose actual work required experience with Excel. Everyone lies on their resume (as you should), but "proficient with Excel" is one of the most common lies.
E: Also, when you get the job, the next step is to learn how and what you can steal.

I can attest that billion dollar companies have people doing this right now.

Tbh I've come across this only a couple of times personally, but any non-zero number of these is too much. Also, you have to remember that quite a large portion of the white collar professionals learned to type on an electric typewriter, and any new technology is cursed and we got by with a physical notepad and a calculator just fine in the 90's. Youtube and search engines are way too high tech for people who got a cozy tenure 30 years ago.

I might've exaggerated a bit but I'm drunk and just spent a week teaching university students how to use command prompt when they were supposed to be learning about TCP and DHCP. Take anything I post about technological illiteracy in the next few hours with a grain of salt.
Funnily enough, outside of excel, programming, and command prompt, I'm damn near technologically illiterate
