Numbers tell story only when you know the background behind

Numbers tell story only when you know the background behind them. The background is either common sense, or experience accumulated in days. Benchmark is also very import in reading numbers. If someone tell you "today I worked 8 hrs", do you think he is happy or not happy. To answer this question, you need to know how long the guy usuarally works for.
