I don't know what it is with corporations and giving everyone menial work to do, but if you find yourself doing data entry and tediously filling out Excel spreadsheets, know that you can simply hire what's called a "virtual assistant" (VAs) to do it for you.
VAs are people you hire to do these jobs for you. Most of them will work for an hourly wage, and they generally don't charge too much for what they do.
Of course, VAs are really only useful if you consistently have data entry work to do. If you have a one-off assignment, such as getting people to fill out surveys online for your company, then it's far easier to go to a website like Microworkers. You can post a job and have a bunch of people fill out these surveys.
Of course, this means the data in the surveys essentially becomes worthless, but chances are the people you work for won't be able to properly read the data anyway.
