  This is a strictly mathematical viewpoint... 
  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 = 118% 
   
  So, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that While Hard work and 
  Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will get you there, it's the 
  Bullshit andAss kissing that will put you over the top

  Let's see...

   

  F-R-A-U-D = 50%

   

  D-E-C-E-P-T-I-O-N = 91%

   

  Hmmm... I guess this means deception gets you farther in life than fraud.

  And a Bank Heist yields 89%!    But a Tax Return is not far behind at 88%.

  I think I'd rather submit my tax returns and stay out of prison!

  easy,

   

  try scream as loud as u can, which u think its your 100%

   

  some said you dont seem to scream loud enough.

   

  u try again, still u think its the best. but that person never agree.

   

  so u try again. till u no voice... then the person said thats your 100%. Think bout it.

  I think this has been circulated in emails for quite some time already.  It started a few years ago, actually.

  Well, depends on the boss lor

  Like mine like that... he is not someone who dunno how to work

  I dunno is it better to work under a dumb boss like Bear's or a boss that is super sharp and knows his work inside out like mine >.<"

   

  For Bear he suffers the agony of a dumb boss, for mine he expects a lot from us.

  For your boss, never try to cheat some1 like your boss. A person who know inside out and super sharp and intelligent are dangerous person to mess with .lol.

  Never try to cheat him la

  He is a nice guy, just don't backstab him or let him down coz he turns really nasty and he got too many connections for you to want to offend him -_-"

  Not bad, actually - confabulation=133%.  Even better, miscombobulation=183%.

  heh heh......yup, ltns neh!  busy with "conflicting" priorities lah.   how hv u been?

  not yet leh.  this year gotta claim tuition fees so gotta wait for uni to mail those tax receipts neh.  but no worries, mine kinda straight forward unlike our MG's investments!   hee hee....in any case, my interests/gains are all deferred so no need to pay taxes for now.
