103% Bull ShitAs we know, math is the key to unlock the great mysteries of the universe. Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%? We have all been to meetings where someone wants over 100% production. How about achieving 103%? Here's a little math that might prove helpful.
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%
.
.
.
.
.
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%
.
.
.
.
So, it stands to reason that hard work and knowledge will get you close, attitude will get you there, but bullshit will put you over the top.
So, the next time someone claims to be giving over 100%, you know what they are doing.
