What makes 100%? - Beware of some sensitive language!

I questioned if I should send this along but it is just too funny and it applies to leading my team. Anyways it came from my mom. So it must be okay.

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:
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ 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=127%

So one can conclude with mathematical certainty that while Hardwork and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will get you there, it's the Bullshit and Asskissing that will put your over the top!
