Shout-out to tipster Max S.

Of the DailyDose Youth Movement, who kindly suggests that we “use spell check and stop swearing.” Ahh… to be 13 years old once more:

Swearing at work boosts team spirt, morale:

Regular swearing at work can help boost team spirit among staff, allowing them to express better their feelings as well as develop social relationships, according to a study by researchers….

“Employees use swearing on a continuous basis, but not necessarily in a negative, abusive manner,” said Baruch, who works in the university’s business school in Norwich.

Banning swear words and reprimanding staff might represent strong leadership, but could remove key links between staff and impact on morale and motivation, he said.

“We hope that this study will serve not only to acknowledge the part that swearing plays in our work and our lives, but also to indicate that leaders sometimes need to ‘think differently’ and be open to intriguing ideas.

The Phds have warned you, Max: You’re on thin ice. Don’t make us hate you. 🙂
