Sentinel7 Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 It’s a Matter of Mathematics:This comes from 2 math teachers with a combined total of 70 yrs. experience. It has an indisputable mathematical logic. It also made me Laugh Out Loud. This is a strictly... mathematical viewpoint... and 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-K8+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. Its the Bullshit and Ass Kissing that will put you over the top. Now you know why some people are where they are!

sxsess Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 I've been working for 30+ years in the oil & gas business and I can tell you that there is a lot of truth in those numbers. I see it everyday! I just thank God that my working days are getting close to coming to an end and I don't have to look at these spineless individuals (suck asses) ever again. +1 brother. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim1cor13 Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 Good one Sentinel...thank you. I have seen my share of BS and ass kissing, and thankfully, I learned at a young age I couldn't play that game. As my dad told me once when I was a young man...son, you are not a "yes man". He was right, and I was often a thorn in my bosses side because of it. I just could not play the part I guess, but at least I maintained integrity as so many others swallowed the BS. Thanks guys for the comments...I also have the scars from the back stabbers over the years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
