Help with automating data style change

S

shhhhh

I have been told that this is something that can be done with a Pivot Table, however pivot tables and I seem to have certain conceptual difficulties.

I get a data dump that comes out in the following format.

This is for multiple locations so the number of tech's varies, as does the number of tasks per day.

What I am looking for is a way to take the above data either by selecting the technician and their individual data, or by doing the whole sheet at once and reformat it to the following. Essentially I want all of the times and information for one day to be on one row. It is a two week period if it makes any difference.

Tech Name
