Giving more than 100%

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:
What makes up 100% in life?
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= 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 then conclude with mathematical certainty that: While Hard work and knowledge will get you close, And, Attitude will get you there, Bullshit and Ass kissing will put you over the top.

excuse me but i rather go with hardwork. 98% makes for a better person than 118% of ass kissing. because when the ass kisser gets what he wants, he wont know what to do with it. i dont mean to get all moral
but arya, its a very clever analogy.

oh and allow me to toot my horn here: i know i put more than 100% of hard work. if there is one thing that i hear alot at work its 'adrian, why do you work so much? you dont need to. let someone help you. why dont you ever take a break?'
i have pride (54%) and hardwork (98%). that makes for 152%.

what makes for the 100% of my body?
50%- hardwork, intelligence, and diligence
50%- my wonderful sweet personality

okay, my horn tooting time is over
