Title: More than 100%?
Post by: raymond on August 02, 2011, 02:48:30 AM
Here's one my brother sent me recently.

Mathematics:

This comes from 2 math teachers with a combined total of 70 years' experience.
It has an indisputable mathematical logic.

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 theBullshit and Ass Kissing that will put you over the top.

Now you know why some people are where they are!

must be something to that, Raymond

B+R+O+W+N+N+O+S+I+N+G
2+18+15+23+14+14+15+19+9+14+7 = 150%

:lol

M  -  A  -  S  -  M
13 + 1 + 19 + 13 = 46%   (..you won't get anywhere with masm only..)

But now look at this...

M  -  A  -  S  -  M  --  I  -  S  --  E  -  V  -  I  -  L
13 + 1 + 19 + 13 + 9 + 19 + 5 + 22 + 9 + 12 = 122%   :naughty:

Or, for minimal effort:

Z+Z+Z+Z = 104%

I like this one!!!  :dance:

C-S-U-C-K-S = 57%

but C-+-+-S-U-C-K-S = 143%.  :lol
