New research found fake smiles at work actually worsens a person's mood and even slows productivity.
"Smiling for the sake of smiling can lead to emotional exhaustion and withdrawal and that's bad for the organization," according to a Michigan State researcher.
This is tough for bank tellers and others who work closely with customers and are told they ALWAYS have to look cheery. The effect is deeper for women who fake it more than men (make your own joke here). The solution -- be genuinely happy by thinking of an upcoming holiday for a memorable family occasion.
