overheard at work

team lead : hey, i need your help.
team member : ok, what’s up.
team lead : if 2450 is 40%, how do i find out what’s 60%?
team member : um, let me see.

(5 minutes later)

team member : 3675.
team lead : ok, thanks.

makes you wonder how they got out of high school, doesn’t it?  i’m pretty sure dandan could’ve come up with the answer faster than that.

me : here’s 10 pieces of science diet.  this is 40% of your food.
dandan: meow.
me : ok, so how much more do I owe you?
dandan : meow.
me : haha. you’re as dumb as them.  hahah.
dandan : (unleashes thousand claw shower)
me : ok ok. here you go.  the answer’s 15, you dumb cat. 15.

see?  the whole process would’ve taken him less than 5 minutes to figure out.
