Fuck yeah!
The BBC reports that swearing at work can “cut stress”, a topic close to the heart of every salmon.
“Swearing at work helps employees cope with stress, academics at a Norfolk university have said.
“A study by Norwich’s University of East Anglia (UEA) into leadership styles found the use of “taboo language” boosted team spirit.
“Our study suggested that, in many cases, taboo language serves the needs of people for developing and maintaining solidarity, and as a mechanism to cope with stress. Banning it could backfire.”
