100 Percent |
11.07.07 |
Realtor called today and said one of the neighborhood Latino families called him and were interested in the house! Currently, they are in the process of getting pre-qualified for a loan. Well, it's actually two families - one guy + wife/kids, and his nephew + whoever else. Keep your fingers crossed!
Anyway, here's a funny joke for your enjoyment:
Giving 100 percent
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 . . .
A S S K I S S I N G
1 19 19 11 9 19 19 9 14 7 = 118%
. . . will take you.
