Math!

Math .. gotta love it .. here's yet another fine example.

Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%?

We have all been to those meetings where someone wants over 100%. How
about achieving 103%? Here's a little math that might prove helpful.
What makes life 100%?

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%

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%

So, it stands to reason that hard work and knowledge will get you close, attitude will get you there, and bullshit will put you over the top.

But, 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 the next time someone asks you to give more than 100%, you know
what is required of you!

That's great. Just as funny as the e mail that went around about buying a case of Budweiser vs investing in tech stocks.
