40% of sick days are taken on 30% of the days of the week. (Or 40% of work days)
(If yours was a joke, I missed it, it's too early right now and I imagine some managers I know would tout that as an important statistic. )
The joke is 40% of the work days account for 40% of the sick days meaning everything is fine. But some people just see the 40% number and assume people are gaming the system when it's actually all perfectly statistically normal with no games.
It's straight out of the book how to lie with statistics even though the number is totally true you give it an inference that points to your agenda
It's from the office.
