Is It Possible for Local Government Officials to Really Give More Than a 100% Effort? The Answer Appears To Be Yes.

Ever wonder if it is really possible for a local public official to give more than


For those of us who have had the privilege to serve in local government, we can remember being approached by a community resident or local taxpayers {who never ran for public office - and who could never get elected to a local government office even if they tried} who demanded that every public employee and all local government officials give more than a 100% effort.

Can someone?  Anyone? Who is serving in a local government public office really give more than a 100% effort???

Let's look at this question logically - say from a mathematical perspective.  It seems a p
rofessor at MIT recently devised a numeric formula that might help us understand what giving a 100% effort actually means for a local public official.  

Now, it's somewhat complicated but try to follow this reasoning - personally I think it's true but then again I could be wrong.

Now 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

Are 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 = Would equal 98%

And

K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E
11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = Would equal 96%


As we can see Hard Work and Knowledge will get most local government officials really close to a 100% effort. 

But this I found amazing -

A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E
1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = Gets us to 100%.  
A positive serving Attitude is the only thing that gets local government officials to a 100% effort.

So is it impossible for a local government official to give more than a 100% effort??

Look at this -

B-U-L-L-S-H-I-T
2+21+12+12+19+8+9+20 = Equals 103%.

and this blew me away -

A-S-S-K-I-S-S-I-N-G
1+19+19+11+9+19+19+9+14+7 = Will get a local government official all the way to 
118%.

So, based on this formula, most of us can safely conclude with mathematical certainty that Bullshit and Ass Kissing will make it appear to many people in a community that some of their public officials are giving them more than a 100% effort.
