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 110%. What exactly does it mean to give more than 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-*-*-*-T
2+21+12+12+19+8+9+20 = 103%

AND, look how far a** kissing will take you.

A-*-*-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 bull***t and a** kissing that will put you over the top.
 
RESIGNATION, RETIREMENT and UNEMPLOYMENT are worth more than all of those.
 
Man, don' let Bob G. see this!

Did any of you follow the link to this article on the Get to Work poster? Yowza! Makes Bob look like a choir boy (just funnin' ya Bob:D - I do not wish to start the flame wars again)

Oh sheesh! If I send that to the people at work, they'll run the color printer completely out of ink within 10 minutes.

The random executions shall continue until morale improves...


edit: Oops. I sent that to all the people at work...

Good points. I see you are a graduate of the new math being taught.:yes:
