The origin of the saying is attributed to Ray Kroc, 1902-1984, CEO of McDonald’s. Most of my 100 first year students this semester knew the saying.

Its validity is in direct relation to the nearness of your income to minimum wage, and in inverse relation to the number of times per day you say it to somebody else.
So, for a manager who makes double minimum wage and says it to someone else twice per day it will be 400% UNtrue (aka -400% true or a quadruple falsitude). But for a person making minimum wage who never says it to someone else it will be 100% true.
