Sumedha Tripathi

If you are an office goer, then you might be dealing with that regular office insanity all the time.    

And if you do, then it’s no surprise that once in a while you might find yourself choosing some choice cuss words to vent your anger.

But you’re not alone. According to a study by telecoms firm 4Com, frustrated office co-workers swear 55 times a week and 11 times a day. 

We are not even surprised. 

68% of people said that ‘fuck’ is the most common curse word heard by them at least once a day–followed by ‘shit’ and ‘bloody’ with 58% and 35% respectively.   

This study was conducted with the help of 2,000 people. It revealed that middle management is responsible for one-third of foul language and swears the most.

Even though it is not the best thing to do, cursing might not be the worst option, according to a psychotherapist.   

Studies suggest swearing can be beneficial as the process is often cathartic. 

So we get it that there is a limit. Once in a while, one’s frustration can cross the limit and you might say some things you might regret. But don’t worry, we all do that.
