Recall those quacks who point out strange coincidences of what is considered to be beautiful to have a magical Golden ratio (Amazed at the coincidence i am, but i’m skeptical about the confirmation bias and the reasons for the coincidences)

How to improve at work

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.

What makes life 100%?

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%

And,
B U L L S H I T
2 21 12 12 19 8 9 20 = 103%

So, it stands to reason that hardwork and knowledge will get you close, attitude will get you there, but bullshit will put you over the top.

And look how far this will take you……

A S S K I S S I N G
1 19 19 11 9 19 19 9 14 7 = 118%

Pity I’m too proud to resort to the last to the extent i am insistent on making an effort to do nothing that looks like asskissing.

That being said about work, I am at heart still a good christian boy.

I have seen something else under the sun: The race is not to the swift or the battle to the strong, nor does food come to the wise or wealth to the brilliant or favor to the learned; but time and chance happen to them all.

For I know the plans I have for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

At any rate I’m thankful to God for the Gift from the school (enough to raised my spirits for the day. Money can make fatigue and pain go away!)

anddd I would have shared this with you earlier if you weren’t busy mugging for exams now
