[Closed] People who fail to deliver on their always giving 110% promise?

For the simpletons

I'm confused. Does that mean less cake?

No on the 4th week he is making twice as much cake (do try and keep up)

On your fourth week you have improved and are producing twice as much by doing as much as you possibly can, you are still giving 100% effort.

But giving 200% of the results. As someone said up the page, why do you think effort is more important than effectiveness?

Moreover,

How do you propose to measure it?

And, I now have far too much cake. What am I supposed to do with it all? Time for lay-offs I think.

110% lolz!!! Kind of impossible really. Seen as a whole is 100% it's idiotic, Brentesque management twoddle.

110% OF WHAT. FFS.

You need to bound it in comparison to another thing, in this case it would need to be a peer / other employee.

You could say, in comparison to him I give 150%.

i used know someone who would regularly give over 100% everyday, seven days a week. he used speed. then he went on holiday and he was too exhausted to get out of bed, for two weeks!

I think using 110% is a first written warning.

If they also "work hard and play hard", then it becomes sackable.

Thats the killer phrase in internet online dating which has me reaching for the "delete" button anyway. Anyone who "plays hard" is to be avoided at all costs.

I don't dislike people with a positive attitude to work.
I dislike people.
I dislike working.
Luckily I have enough self esteem that I don't have to define my self with my job or rely on other peoples opinons of me to be happy..... 😀

I don't even have a job.

But are you giving being unemployed 110%?

Effort is worthless, its what you deliver that counts. 8)

I'm not unemployed either. Nor am I self-employed. I'm not even officially retired.

Oh,oh I know this one....Are you..............Ernest Borgnine??

I'd have to Google that to know who Ernest is so I can't be him either.

😯

Kids of today.

Him offa Airwolf.

85% of the day I give 100% of the other 15% - 50% is spent eating, 20% drinking coffee, 20% looking at singletrack, 10% picking my nose or having a poo.

Zoolander 7.5% eating cake seems a little 'shy' - do you require more work placed training?

no stuey - I wouldnt want to push my luck 🙂

That bloke who loaded 130 tons of cement in a day, he always gave 110%.
