Who Gave 127%?

Our resident math expert, Dick Pedersen, provided this bit of arcane (and sage) math knowledge - too late, I'm afraid, for those of us who have fully retired by now:

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-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+7 =  127%   
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!
