Giving more than 100%?

[sourboy]

From a strictly mathematical viewpoint it goes like this:

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%?

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+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%

And,

B-U-L-L-()-H-I-T = 2+21+12+12+19+8+9+20 = 103%

and, look how far a-- kissing will take you:

A-()-()--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, Bull-hit and A-- Kissing will put you over the top!

The Person = 120%, only half of Civ... But then I'm not worthy anyway...

This was a whole new concept to me. Not very funny, but very useful if you want to prove a point.
