What makes 100%? What does it mean to give more than a 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 more than
100%. How about achieving 103%?

Well, here's a little mathematical formula that might help you answer these
questions:

If the letters of the alphabet 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 were 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 would be:
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%

however - -

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 = 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, it's Bullshit & Ass Kissing that will put you over the top!


ISN'T POLITICS WONDERFUL???????????????????????
 
I seriously thought this was going to be a poll about who works hard. :lol:
 
hahaha!! Good one!

Ass Kidding has mroe letters so it has a better chance of getting a higher mark. I think. I didn't count of course, I just looked :) lol


My idea is, if you give 100% you're doing what you're supposed to do, what you were told or said you would. And doing it properly and fully.

Giving more than 100% is doing extra.

Like if you have a contractor and they tell you they'll do a great job but won't clean up after themselves...and then they do a great job (or better) but for some reason clean up after themselves than thats over 100%.

If they did a poor job and cleaned up after themselves even though they said they wouldn't clean up, then that's below 100%...what percentage...I don't know. I'm sure there's a huge mathmatical way of figuring it out and mathmagician is not my job (and not the one you presneted. I mean the real shizzaz).

That's what I think. It makes sense to meeeeeeeeeeee :)

I almost forgot the absolute winner:

S-L-E-E-P-I-N-G-W-I-T-H-T-H-E-B-O-S-S

19+12+5+5+16+9+14+7+24+9+20+10+20+10+5+2+15+19+19 = 221%

:lol:

:shock: What do you do when you ARE the boss??? :?

Most bosses have bosses of their own right?

My question is...What if youre the boss...and a guy...or a girl, and you're straight as an arrow....but your boss who is the same gender as you isnt, then what do you do to get your 221%???

What if theyre opposite gender as you and you're crooked as a broken bone?
