In people's daily work, they often encounter problems of one kind or another. At this time, if we can use humor skillfully, we may solve many problems virtually.

Mike Ariste, an engineer in charge of a major airline, was sent to attend a meeting to discuss whether to install the new jet engine on an over-aged plane. At the meeting, the argument was very fierce, and the two sides who pretended not to pretend were at odds. Finally, the chairman of the seminar broke the depressing atmosphere.

He said: "These old planes are like old grandmothers. Installing a new engine for an old plane is like breast augmentation for an old grandmother. Although it may be wasteful, it may not be wasted ... In any case, the old grandmother must feel very happy."

Laughter comes out of your mouth, and your thoughts laugh with you, making you more agile.

Humor helps people solve difficult problems in their work. In fact, we often encounter difficult things like the above examples or other types in our work, which are difficult to solve by normal methods, and sometimes we have to ask humor for help.

There is an airline's statistical engineer who routinely briefs pilots on aircraft performance standards every year.

Statistical engineers are worried that pilots will not notice the statistical charts he made, and even suspect that some pilots do not understand the meaning of the curves on the charts.

When he had an epiphany, he painted a dazzling sun at one end of the curve, indicating good performance, and painted a rain cloud at the other end of the curve, indicating poor performance.

The pilot liked this trick very much, so he paid special attention to his explanation and learned more from the statistical tables. The engineer achieved his goal with humor.

Humor can not only solve problems effectively, but also change the relationship with superiors, subordinates and colleagues at work, which is indispensable for your excellent work.

Sometimes, if you do something wrong, if you explain it seriously, the leader may not understand, and the humorous attitude will have a good effect.

When the boss blames his subordinates, it is best to say it with a humorous tone and a smile, so that on the one hand, it can keep the self-esteem of the other party and achieve the effect of blaming, and your subordinates will only love you more.

The office is a working place, and it is necessary to establish a good working environment. If you often bring humor and laughter to people, you can not only enliven the atmosphere, but also attract the likes of colleagues.

Of course, you can also joke with your colleagues with witticisms. For example, you can say, "You guys are fast enough, only one week, and your work progress is one month behind."

Then, "Your work is easy, the personnel change is too fast in our place, and there is only a weekly calendar instead of an annual calendar", etc., which can establish a good image of your humor, humor and likability, and lay a good foundation for mutual support and coordination with colleagues.
