I normally don't pay much attention to jokes I receive in email, but here's one that's more truth than humor. Enjoy :-)
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, but bullshit will put you over the top.
And look how far
A S S K I S S I N G = 1 19 19 11 9 19 19 9 14 7 = 118%
Will take you.
