Maths at WORK

Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%?

We have all been to those meetings where someone wants over 100%.

How about achieving 103%?

Here's a little math that might prove helpful.

What makes life 100%?


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 hardwork and knowledge will get
you close,

attitude will get you there, but bullshit will put you over the top.
And look how far



      A  S  S  K  I  S  S  I  N  G

      1 19 19  11 9 19 19  9 14  7 = 118%

will take you.
