I am a sailor working in the merchant navy. I had an Excel file where I kept track of my wages earned and deductions. Recently, the file corrupted. If anyone could correct it or send me a new file, I would highly appreciate it. Thank you in advance.

I'm sorry to hear about the corruption of your Excel file. Here are some steps you can follow to try and recover the file:
1. 📵 Open Excel and go to "File", then click on "Open".
2. 🔄 Look for the "Recent" option, and click on "Recover Unsaved Workbooks" at the bottom of the screen.
3. 🗡️ From the folder that pops up, look for the corrupted file and double-click on it to open.
4. 📰 If the file opens, great! Remember to immediately save it.
If the above steps don't work, you may need a new Excel file. Here's a simple structure you can use:
- 🔚 Create columns for the following categories:
1. Date
2. Hours Worked
3. Wage Rate
4. Gross Pay
5. Deductions
6. Net Pay
- 🔝 You can then input your hours worked each day, your wage rate, and any deductions in the respective columns.
- ⚖️ The Gross Pay can be calculated as Hours Worked multiplied by Wage Rate.
- 🆑 The Net Pay would be Gross Pay minus Deductions.
Remember to save your file regularly and keep backups to avoid losing data in the future. Also, consider using cloud storage like Google Drive or Dropbox, which automatically save and backup your files.
Regarding your wages and deductions, remember that under the Merchant Shipping Act of 1958 and the Maritime Labour Convention of 2006, your employer is obliged to provide a monthly account of payments due and deductions made. Always cross-check your records with the official ones.
Hope this helps! 🙏🏼😅🔠
