 1. What's Your Humor Profile? 

According to Dr. Rod Martin from the University of 
Western Ontario, there are four main types of humor 
that people practice: social and coping humor are
positive styles of humor, while self-defeating and
sarcastic humor are negative. Naturally, the key to a 
healthier and less stressful work life is to make 
sure the style of humor you practice is positive - 
humor that connects with other people, breaks down 
walls between groups and humor that helps people deal 
with the challenges of their day to day stressors.

2. Mike's Fun at Work Tip 

There is a bus driver in Hawaii famous for handing out 
Hawaiian leis to customers that need a little cheering 
up. What a great, simple idea: Find something inexpensive 
and fun that you can keep close at hand to dispense to 
co-workers or customers to help make their day.

A pair of Michigan robbers enter a record store. Whipping
