Do you give 100%?

[Nige]

What Makes 100%? What does it mean to give MORE than 100%? Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%? We have all been to those meetings where someone wants you to give over 100%. How about achieving 103%? What makes up 100% in life?

Here's a little mathematical formula that might help you answer these questions:

If:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z

is represented as:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.

Then:

H-A-R-D-W-O-R-K
8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%

and

K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E
11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%

But,

A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E
1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%

And,

B-U-L-L-S-H-*-T
2+21+12+12+19+8+9+20 = 103%

AND, look how far ass kissing will take you.

A-S-S-K-I-S-S-I-N-G
1+19+19+11+9+19+19+9+14+7 = 118%

So, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that While Hard work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will get you there, it's the Bullsh*T and Ass kissing that will put you over the top

Wow, thats really something. Did you come up with this formula yourself?

 

[Nige]

Sadly not, I was sent it by a work colleague.

A truth of the ages, at last proven by mathematics.

Quiet, you.

Cheers.

I'm a huge fan of The Man Show (not the new ones that got cancelled) The old ones with Adam and Jimmy. They had this hilarious episode with Tommy LaSorda where they went to his training camp. They kept saying, "We'll give it 110%" and Tommy went ballistic~"You can ONLY give 100%, there isn't any more to give!" After that, they kept saying it just to annoy him...

XOXO

Heh!

Check out how far

S-C-R-E-W-I-N-G T-H-E B-O-S-S

will get you!
