Everybody just loves sarcasm. It's so warm and fuzzy and makes everyone feel nice. So go ahead with those biting quips -- they'll definitely win you friends and admirers!
I'm being sarcastic, of course. Sarcasm, as we all know, might be occasionally hilarious (and often a pretty great way to vent your annoyance with the world), but it doesn't exactly seem like a surefire strategy to build alliances and get ahead at work. In fact, most career coaches would probably tell you to avoid it at all costs at the office.
Except maybe they're all totally wrong. That's the suggestion of research on sarcasm that is bound to cheer fans of snarky comments everywhere. Apparently, sarcasm doesn't just make you happy; it can also help you be more creative and successful.
