Giving More Than 100%View MessagesViewing posts 1 to 5 of 5 messages posted.
“From a strictly mathematical viewpoint, it goes like this: 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-I-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 then conclude with mathematical certainty that while Hard Work and Knowledge will get you close, and, Attitude will get you there, Bull#&%!$ and Ass Kissing will put you over the top! (of course you may also use this same system to determine other "skills" percentage)” 1:54:58 PM 11/29/04 very interesting “A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 R S T U V W X Y Z 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26. TOWN DAWG = 127” 2:16:36 PM 11/29/04 “I got written-up and also almost fired for doing 110% ! I swear. My boss said she was going to assign that other 10% to someone else and that I was usurping her authority. I updated my resume and got the heck out of there. Had been there 7 years and left because of this B/S. (her boss was unsympathetic.)” 3:58:22 PM 11/29/04 “I only give 90% But then I am middle-age and I work smart. Does that count for anything?” 4:19:52 PM 11/29/04 “Nigal = 43% This explains a lot...” 4:23:54 PM 11/29/04
