Did I sleep so well I missed a couple of days? No? C'mon John it's not Friday. Please stick to the rules.

Colby Sent: 12 February 2003 04:12 To: AccessD Subject: [AccessD] Humor: 100 per cent plus What makes 100%? 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. 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% 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. And look how far "ass-kissing" will take you. A S S - K I S S I N G: 1 29 19 11 9 19 19 9 14 7 = 118%!!!!! You can take it from there. John W.
