120%

We just got this email from the project manager on my project saying how everyone has been doing so great, and we’ve all given 120%, aren’t we all wonderful… blah, blah, blah. Supposedly moral boosting, but in reality just produces eye rolling. So someone replies: I have to disagree, I think Phillip only gave 108%. I have been laughing for 10 min. I can’t stop. I think I’m going over the edge. I think I’ll put my head down on my desk for awhile.

yeah, the home stretch of any project is always a nightmare.

** update: and then Phillip replied and said: well I think Amy only gave 99.91%
waaaa!!
