Some words have been modified to make this thread "kid friendly"!! :)

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-*-*-*-*

2+21+12+12+19+8+9+20 = 103%

and, look how far butt kissing will take you:

B-U-T-T--K-I-S-S-I-N-G

2+21+20+20+11+9+19+19+9+14+7 = 151%

So, one can then conclude with mathematical certainty that:

While Hard work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will get you there, "B.S." and Butt Kissing will put you over the top.

I always knew there had to be a science to prove this stuff somewhere!

Through observation I knew this to be "true". Now I have the math equation to prove it!!! Thanks I love this one.
