My coworkers and I are professionals, but we tend to lack decorum. It's not all that noticeable, except when we have conference calls with other departments in the company located in NY and Cali. Today someone in CA was pitching a story on a man whose first name is Dick. After a couple of minutes spent discussing what Dick was like, a few of us were snickering behind our hands. But the corker was when someone said "No, Dick is never stiff!" We giggled silently so the conference call mic wouldn't pick it up. Then a clueless coworker on our end said, "Let me work on him, I'll loosen him up!" Har har har. After the call had ended, we all recapped the funniest lines in the conversation, clueing in clueless coworker, who also laughed.

The thing is, it wasn't even funny, really. It was just a geniune pleasure to act like 11-year-old ne'er-do-wells sitting in the back of the classroom, all the while conducting business with actual professionals who have to wear nice clothes to work every day. Inappropriate laughter is the sweetest kind of all.
