Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%? We
have all been to those meetings (had conversations) where someone wants over
100%. How about achieving 103%?
Here's a little introduction to Math 101 that might prove to be helpful to
you. What makes life 100%? Hmm...

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. But,
look how far ass kissing or sucking up will take you.
A S S K I S S I N G
19 19 11 9 19 19 9 14 7 = 118%

S U C K I N G U P
19 21 3 10 9 14 7 21 16 = 120%

So the next time someone asks you to give more than 100%, you know what is
required of you!
