白领也要会点儿"黑色幽默"

       Psychologists say that just because you're laughing doesn't mean you're wasting time. You're actually making yourself─and those around you─better employees. Occasional teasing and banter among colleagues, particularly if it revolves around things associated with the job, can boost creativity, departmental cohesiveness and performance, they say.

　　心理学家们说，你在笑并不意味着你在浪费时间。你实际上是在让自己以及周围的人成为更好的员工。他们说，同事之间偶尔开开玩笑逗逗乐，尤其是如果围绕着与工作相关的事，可以提高创造力和部门凝聚力，并提升工作表现。

　　'There are a lot of stressors out there,' says Ed Dunkelblau, a psychologist and corporate consultant with the Institute for Emotionally Intelligent Learning in Chicago. 'Humor is a way of making difficult things a little less difficult.'
