The question was something like: “your boss tells you that the job requires 110%. We asked so many people what percentage they would give?”

The #1 answer was 90%.

But Steve Harvey had two contestants who answered 50% and 75%.

Want to guess their race and the result if their boss was watching?

It isn’t the name, it’s the perception that goes with it.

I’d tell someone that NO ONE gives 100%. A running coach told me once a runner gave 100% if they collapsed at the finish line and needed to be carried to a hospital! “Anything less, and it wasn’t 100%!”

So a boss who says 110% is the minimum is a boss who is just blowing smoke up your butt, OR someone with low standards!
