    What Makes 100%
    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 then conclude with mathematical certainty that while Hard Work and Knowledge will get you close, and, Attitude will get you there, Bulltulip and Ass kissing will put you over the top.

      Engineers and scientists will never make as much money as business
      executives will. Now, for the first time we have a rigid Mathematical
      proof that explains why this is in fact true.

      Postulate 1: Knowledge is power.

      Postulate 2: Time is money.

      As every Engineer knows, Work / Time = Power

      Since Knowledge = Power, and Time = Money, we have Work / Money =
      Knowledge

      Solving for Money, we get: Work / Knowledge = Money Thus, as Knowledge
      approaches zero,

      Money approaches infinity, regardless of the amount of work done.

      Conclusion: The less you know, the more you make.

          It's an old one but very bad......

          Boy walks into the kitchen where his mother is doing the washing up.
          "Mom, Grandma has got a prawn" his says to her
          "What do you mean grandma has got a prawn" the mother replies
          So the boy takes the mother into the lounge where the grandma is lying naked on the sofa.
          He points and says again "see grandma has got a prawn"
          The mother smiles and says "no son that's not a prawn that's your grandmothers Cl it tor ious"
          The boy looks to his mom all confused and replies "oh right.....well it tasts like prawn"

          Thats the way the cookie crumbles

            Little boy runs in to see his mother after being out with his dad, and says "Mummy, mummy, me and daddy have seen a robot walking down the street".
            "How do you know it was a robot?" asks the little boys mum
            "Well daddy said he would like to screw the arse of her" replies the little boy

              President Bush is representing the United States of America on a highly
              formal, impeccably planned state visit to England. At Heathrow, a
              300-foot long red carpet is stretched out to Air Force One and Mr. Bush
              strides to a warm but dignified handshake from Queen Elizabeth II.

              They ride in a silver 1934 Bentley limousine to the edge of central
              London where they board an open 17th century coach hitched to six
              magnificent white matching horses. As they ride toward Buckingham
              Palace, each looking sideways and waving to the thousands of cheering
              Britons lining the streets, all is going well. But suddenly the right
              rear horse lets fly with the most horrendous, earth-rending,
              eye-smarting blast of gastronomic flatulence ever heard in the British
              Empire, including Bermuda, Tortola and the Falkland Islands. It shakes
              the coach.

              Uncomfortable, but under control, the two dignitaries of state do their
              best to ignore the whole incident but then the Queen decides that's
              ridiculous. She turns to Mr. Bush and explains, "Mr. President, please
              accept my regrets....I'm sure you understand that there are some things
              that even a Queen cannot control".

              George W. Bush, ever the gentleman, replies, "You Majesty, please don't
              give the matter another thought......you know, if you hadn't said
              something I would have thought it was one of the horses."

                A wife went to the police station with her next-door neighbor to
                report her husband was missing. The policeman asked for a description.

                She said, "He's 35 years old, 6 foot 4, had dark eyes, dark wavy
                hair, an athletic build, weighs 185 pounds, is soft-spoken, and is
                good to the children."

                The next-door neighbor protested, "Your husband is 5 foot 4 inches,
                chubby, bald, has a big mouth, and is mean to your children."

                The wife replied, "Yeah, but who wants HIM back?"

                  The psychiatrist's secretary walks into his study and says, "Mr.
                  Black is in the waiting room asking to see you again. This time he claims
                  he's invisible."

                  The psychiatrist responds, "Tell him I can't see him."

                    An explorer became lost in a far-off land. He wandered for days, unable
                    to find food, and finally in desperation he killed, cooked and ate his pet
                    dog.

                    Afterwards, surveying the pathetic pile of bones which remained, he was
                    overcome with emotion as the thought occurred to him...

                      A Memo from Finance Dept.
                      It has come to our attention recently that many of you have been turning
                      in time sheets that specify large amounts of 'Miscellaneous Unproductive
                      Time'(code #5000).

                      To FD, unproductive time is not a problem. What is a problem, however, is
                      not knowing exactly what you are doing with your unproductive time. The
                      newly installed Activity Based Costing Financial System requires
                      additional information to achieve its goals.

                      Attached below is a sheet specifying an Extended Task Code List based on
                      observations of employee activities. The list will allow you to specify
                      with greater precision what you are doing during your unproductive time.
                      Please begin using this job code list immediately and let us know about
                      any difficulties you may encounter.
