Juste un mail qu'on m'envoie aujourd'hui, et que je trouve à propos...

From a strictly mathematical viewpoint, it goes like this:
What Makes 100%? What does it mean to give MORE than 100%? We have all been to those meetings where someone wants you to give over 100%. How about achieving 103%?
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, Bullshit
and Ass kissing will put you over the top.
