Hard Work
Recently received this in an e-mail. You can't argue with the math
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 hardwork and knowledge will get you close,
attitude will get you there, but bullshit will put you over the top. So,
the next time someone claims to be giving over 100%, you know what he is
doing.
And if your boss demands more than 100%, then feed it to him.
