does anyone else feel like their coworkers are afraid to laugh at jokes?
I don't mean jokes about company values or leadership. Just jokes.

The hesitancy of laughing at jokes at work…. Interesting topic. There’s the angle at what “kind” of jokes (inappropriate vs appropriate) but also how different folks view what is and isn’t appropriate humor with colleagues to begin with. Lastly, there’s an interesting angle at the pure mass suspicion of any humor at work in fear of laughing at the “wrong” joke. 🧐

Oh and how certain humor does or doesn’t translate in-person VS. Remotely. Ok that’s it. I spend too much time here 😆
