Giving the Royal Fleet Auxiliary 100% or more!
From 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 give 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 is a little formula that might help you answer these questions.
If A=1, B=2, C=3, D=4, E=5, F=6, G=7, H=8, I=9, J=10, K=11, L=12, M=13, N=14, O=15, P=16, Q=17, R=18, S=19, T=20, U=21, V=22, W=23, X=24, Y=25, Z=26
Then:
HARD WORK = 8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%
KNOWLEDGE = 11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%
But
ATTITUDE = 1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%
then again
BULLSH*T = 2+21+12+12+19+8+9+20 = 103%
But look how far ass kissing will get you
ASS KISSING = 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 bullsh*t and ass kissing that will put you over the top.
