This is 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%?

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+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%

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 conclude with mathematical certainty that while Hard work
and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will get you there, it's
the Bull#$%* and Ass Kissing that will put you over the top.

If I were still working, I'd post this as a sign outside my office.

Of course I might have been unemployed shortly thereafter.

I have it posted in my office right now! Found it somewhere else a while back. Sums up office life quite well!

Was really quite amusing last month when the company has a system for evaluating other departments and the general managers.  Somehow, the dayshift general received a rating of 103%.  Quite a few jokes about that one, including "...103%  WOW!  That's better than GOD!".    Now it's all clear to me, and makes perfect sense.

You can't argue with math.
