I hate the saying “110% effort”….or even just “110%”, unless it is preceded by the words “our income increased”.  It is simply NOT possible.  100% is the greatest possible amount of energy/effort you can put in!!!  There is no way to give more than 100% so why say 110%?  Ok, I’m not stupid, I know it’s to express that a person wants to go above and beyond, give it their all etc etc but it’s still ONLY ever going to be 100%.  Any thing less than your best is under the 100% mark and you will NEVER exceed it!!!!  Oh, it drives me crazy just typing this….it’s my all time pet hate!!!
