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+2 0+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 = 127%
So, one might conclude that while H-A-R-D W-O-R-K and K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E will get you close, and A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E will get you there, it's the B-U-L-L-S-H-I-T and A-S-S K-I-S-S-I-N-G that will put you over the top!
And lastly ....
W-H-O Y-O-U K-N-O-W
23+8+15+25 +15+21+11+14+15+23 = 170%
W-H-A-T Y-O-U K-N-O-W
23+8+1+20 25+15+21 11+14+15+23 = 176%
I think this new method has some merit....certainly in my world!!!!! |

Actually I think there are already a few people working at 103-127% in my office. |

4 + 5 + 4 + 9 + 3 + 1 + 20 + 9 + 15 + 14 = 84%
