What Makes 100%?
What does it mean to give MORE than 100%? '''''' :badairday:
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%. :uuh:
:mmmh:
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.
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%
'''''
(donkey -Hopes— someone will Kiss his Ass—
-Which really would be... an Over 100% -experience...)
:sick:
...So, one can conclude with mathematical certainty,
that While
Hard work and
Knowledge will
get you close, and Attitude will
get you there,
its the Bullshit and Ass kissing that will
put you over the top.

SIMPLY BECAUSE IT IS ILLEGAL TO SHOOT THEM'

Um, I, too, have sat through many meetings where Senior Management have invoked YetAnother 110% Effort.
On one occasion, we were still picking up the fall-out from previous 'Full On' campaign. This manager was noted for his athleticism. I quietly asked his 100 metre time. Though puzzled, pride made him reply. Then I asked his 200 metre. Then his 400 metre. Then his kilometre. Then his half marathon...
At which point, he realised that I had gaffed him.
I pointed out that his previous 110% session had exhausted our 'contingency' stocks of instrument consumables, and we were deep into back-order country. We'd be hard-pressed to support normal production for several weeks, so any hurried 'stupids' by Production would cause grid-lock...
After he finished gulping like a beached guppy, he promised to pass on our concerns...
We later heard that he did, and even quoted my running analogy: He was not a *nice* person, but he could do the math...

next boring job meeting :clap:

I've seen it elsewhere, but no one does a funny with your style.
