Author Topic: Giving 100%, And What Makes 100%? Paul G. Thompson The Weenie Man Posts: 4718 From: Mount Vernon WA USA Registered: Nov 2000 posted 04-25-2003 09:20 PM                     Maybe this belongs in the Joke Forum, but there is simply too much truth in this. Here goes..... 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%? Here's a little mathematical formula that might help you answer these questions: What makes up 100% in life 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 = 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, Bullshit and Ass kissing will put you over the top. How true.....Sounds like our corporations, doesn't it?  |  IP: Logged
